Discover the grape variety: Négret Canourgue

Originating very certainly from the high valley of the Tarn aveyronnaise and lozérienne. It was confused for a long time with Abouriou, and as a result it still exchanges, wrongly, a few synonyms. It is very little multiplied, almost unknown in the other French wine regions.

The wine region of Minho

Minho is Portugal's Northernmost wine region. It is known for one wine style above all others: crisp, light, white Vinho Verde, whose DOC zone covers the same territory.

The latter's looser production laws allow more diversity in the average winery's portfolio, including red and rosé wines.

The word of the wine: Load shedding

Unlike pumping over, the liquid part is completely removed from the tank before being poured over the marc. This allows for a better mixing of the solid particles and the juice.
