    Discovering the wine region of Saint-Sardos

    Saint-Sardos is an appellation for red and rosé wines produced along a 25 km stretch of the Garonne River, 15 km Southwest of the city of Montauban, in southwestern France. It is a relatively unique appellation in France, as it is one of the few regions where Syrah and Tannat blends are regularly found. The latter, the main grape varieties planted, produce Dense, Spicy red wines that pair well with local cuisine. The appellation covers 23 villages in the south of the Tarn-et-Garonne department, 40 km North of Toulouse.

    It borders the much larger IGP Côtes de Gascogne, and the best-known AOC appellations, Fronton and Gaillac, lie just east of the Saint-Sardos vineyards. The River Garonne generally flows along the eastern boundary of the 85 hectare appellation and has a considerable effect on the local Terroir. The sunny, alluvial soils of the area are well suited to viticulture, which shares the landscape with other forms of agriculture. The vineyards of Saint-Sardos are located on alluvial terraces that run up the river.

      Discover the grape variety: Cabernet franc

      Cabernet Franc is one of the oldest red grape varieties in Bordeaux. The Libourne region is its terroir where it develops best. The terroirs of Saint-Emilion and Fronsac allow it to mature and develop its best range of aromas. It is also the majority in many blends. The very famous Château Cheval Blanc, for example, uses 60% Cabernet Franc. The wines produced with Cabernet Franc are medium in colour with fine tannins and subtle aromas of small red fruits and spices. When blended with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, it brings complexity and a bouquet of aromas to the wine. It produces fruity wines that can be drunk quite quickly, but whose great vintages can be kept for a long time. It is an earlier grape variety than Cabernet Sauvignon, which means that it is planted as far north as the Loire Valley. In Anjou, it is also used to make sweet rosé wines. Cabernet Franc is now used in some twenty countries in Europe and throughout the world.
