The wine region of Cassis
Provençal AOC (1936, among the first six classified) in an amphitheatre facing the Mediterranean below Cap Canaille, 196 ha on limestone soils, sunny and windy maritime climate. Signature whites (70%, rare in Provence) from Marsanne and Clairette: full-bodied and iodine-tinged with white peach, candied citrus, flowers, anise and saline-mineral coastal notes. Bourboulenc and Ugni Blanc as support. Lively rosés and supple reds from Grenache and Mourvèdre.
The wine region of Provence
World capital of dry, refined rosé (~90% of production). Pale rose-petal colour, delicate nose of fresh red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant), citrus (pink grapefruit), white flowers and a mineral touch, taut and thirst-quenching palate — the Mediterranean aperitif par excellence. Blends of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Tibouren and Mourvèdre. Fleshy Bandol reds from Mourvèdre (leather, garrigue, age-worthy), straight Cassis whites.
The word of the wine: Presses
The juice that results from pressing the grapes after fermentation. At the end of the maceration, the vats are emptied, the first juice obtained is called the free-run wine and the marc remaining at the bottom of the vat is then pressed to give the press wine. We say more quickly "the presses". Their quality varies according to the vintage and the maceration. A too vigorous extraction releases the tannins of pips and the wine of press can then prove to be very astringent. Often the winemaker raises it separately, deciding later whether or not to incorporate it totally or partially into the grand vin.
