Discover the grape variety: Barras

It most certainly originates from the Tarn region, a variety that has completely disappeared from the vineyard and is therefore on the way out. It was very difficult to find documentation concerning it, especially since there is a slight confusion with malpé. D.N.A. analyses processed by a specific software (U.M.R.-A.G.A.P. Montpellier) indicate that malpé is the result of a cross between cahours and fer.

The wine region of Bellet

Bellet is a small appellation for red, white and rosé wines from the hills around Nice, in the Provence region of southeastern France. Despite Provence's penchant for rosé, a balanced blend of all three colours is produced under the name Bellet. Nice's proximity to the Italian border - and thus to the western vineyards of Liguria and Piedmont - is reflected in the style of Bellet wines and particularly in the Grape varieties used in their production. Bellet's key white grape variety is Vermentino, a variety that originated in Liguria, but which now accounts for 60% of all Bellet white wine.


The wine region of Provence

Provence is a wine region in the far southeast of France, best known for the quality (and quantity) of its rosé wines and for its Warm, mild Climate. The modernization that is taking place in many of the traditional wine regions of southern France has not yet taken place to the same extent in Provence, but there are Clear signs of change. The region's Grape varieties, in particular, have come under scrutiny in recent decades. Traditional varieties such as Carignan, Barbaroux (Barbarossa from Sardinia) and Calitor are being replaced by more commercially viable varieties such as Grenache, Syrah and even Cabernet Sauvignon.
