The wine region of Chinon
Northern limit of Cabernet Franc in France on the south bank of the Loire in Touraine: velvety, balanced reds with aromas of strawberry, raspberry, cherry, blackcurrant and sweet spices (vanilla, cinnamon), supple tannins and digestible freshness. Light, fruity wines from gravel soils, more structured and mineral tuffeau wines suited to ageing. Also lively rosés and rare Chenin whites. Touraine AOC west of Tours, one of France's northernmost red appellations, from everyday to age-worthy bottles.
The wine region of Loire Valley
Kingdom of lively, dry whites and fine sparklers. Mineral, taut Sauvignon Blanc (Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé) with citrus and gunflint notes. Multiform Chenin Blanc (Vouvray, Savennières, Layon): straight dry, floral off-dry or noble sweet honey-quince. Saline, iodised Muscadet (Melon B.
The word of the wine: Disgorging (champagne)
This is the evacuation of the deposit formed by the yeasts during the second fermentation in the bottle, by opening the bottle. The missing volume is completed with the liqueur de dosage - a mixture of wine and cane sugar - before the final cork is placed. For some years now, some producers have been replacing this sugar with rectified concentrated musts (concentrated grape juice) which give excellent results. A too recent dosage (less than three months) harms the gustatory harmony of the champagne.
