The wine region of Cite de Carcassonne
Aude IGP around the medieval city (~3,000 ha, 20 communes): Mediterranean and Atlantic blends — Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Grenache, Carignan as ruling reds with signature red and black fruits, spice and typical garrigue notes. Chardonnay, Vermentino, Sauvignon Blanc and Viognier as whites with fresh, floral and fruity profiles. IGP, dual climate (Mediterranean breezes tempered by the Atlantic Cers wind).
The wine region of Pays d'Oc
The single-grape IGP par excellence: modern, accessible, frank and fruity wines, the popular signature of the Midi. Spicy Syrah reds (pepper, blackberry), round Merlot, structured Cabernet, generous Grenache, supple Cinsault. Crisp, tangy rosés. Opulent Chardonnay whites, lively Sauvignon, floral, apricoty Viognier.
The word of the wine: Consistency
In tasting, it is the equivalent of chewing (the chewiness of a tannic red wine is also mentioned). We then speak of firmness, fluidity, softness, hardness, and why not the crunchiness of an early wine by reference to the grape.
