Whites with many faces: mineral and taut at Chablis (lemon, green apple, flint), opulent and buttery at Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet (hazelnut, brioche, yellow fruits), tense and chalky in Champagne (Blanc de Blancs). Also vinified sparkling and widely exported (Sonoma, Margaret River, Casablanca). A Burgundian variety, a cross of Pinot Noir × Gouais Blanc, half-sibling of Aligoté.
Coastal sub-zone of Canelones, Uruguay, on the Río de la Plata, with fresh Atlantic breezes and clay-limestone soils. Tannat is the signature red: deep colour with intense notes of blackberry, blackcurrant, black plum, leather and a cocoa-smoky touch, firm tannins polished by the maritime influence, more approachable than Madiran. Albariño is the signature white — taut and saline with citrus, white flowers and an iodine touch, brilliant acidity. Aromatic Moscatel as complement.
