Discover the grape variety: Madeleine angevine O.
This variety was obtained in the 19th century by Christian Oberlin, by crossing the madeleine angevine with the bouquettraube, registered in the Official Catalogue of vine varieties list A1. It should not be confused with the said Madeleine Angevine because its resemblance is strong, at least in its bunches. Today, Madeleine angevine Oberlin is no longer cultivated, it is still only found in a few private homes, usually on trellises. - Synonymy: angevine oberlin, madeleine blonde oberlin (the synonymy of grape varieties, click here!)

The wine region of Beaujolais
Beaujolais is an important wine region in eastern France, famous for its vibrant, Fruity red wines made from Gamay. It is located immediately South of Burgundy, of which it is sometimes considered a Part, although it is in the administrative region of Rhône. The extensive plantings of Gamay in this region make Beaujolais one of the few regions in the world that is so concentrated on a single Grape variety. Pinot Noir is used in small quantities in red and rosé wines, but in the name of regional identity, it is being phased out and will only be allowed until the 2015 harvest.
The word of the wine: Ugni blanc
White grape variety of Italian origin, and the main white variety grown in France. Its large bunches give fine, light and lively wines, suitable for distillation: today it is the main variety for making cognac and armagnac. Ugni blanc, which is a little richer in alcohol when grown in Mediterranean regions, is used in the blending of the Provence and Corsica appellations, often in association with other grape varieties that bring aromas and structure, such as clairette, grenache blanc or sauvignon. Ugni blanc is also used, on a secondary basis, in the production of certain white wines in Gironde (AOC Bordeaux, Entre-deux-Mers, etc.).
