Discover the grape variety: Aubun
Aubun is not to be confused with another grape variety with the same sound, aubin. This one is a black grape plant of which the Vaucluse is the probable cradle. Covering nearly 5,400 hectares of vineyards in the late 1990s, its cultivation was reduced to some 1,400 hectares in the mid-2000s. California and Australia also have discreet plantations. In the Var, Lot-et-Garonne, Gers, Ardèche and other departments, aubun is authorized, if not recommended. Its third-period ripeness promises medium to large bunches of compact, cylindrical grapes that will produce medium-quality wine. Quite alcoholic, the wine produced from Aubun is a lightly colored red. After budburst, the shoots bear young branches covered with a cottony veil. The young leaves are yellowish and downy. The older ones have pubescent, cottony blades with 5 to 7 limbs.

The wine region of England
England, although more famous for gin and beer, has been producing wine since Roman Imperial times (100 – 400 AD). Historically the country has not been known for the quality of its winemaking, inhibited by its northerly latitude and resulting cool Climate. However the last decade or so has seen considerable progress and expansion, and increases in planting of noble Grape varieties. Significant chaptilzation to off-set the high Acidity of under-ripe grapes was once common practice but since the 1970s and particularly since the turn of the millennium natural sugar levels have increased in the Vineyard and wines have increased in quality and reputation.
The word of the wine: Grafting
A method used since the phylloxera crisis, consisting of fixing a graft of local origin on a rootstock resistant to phylloxera.
