Discovering the wine region of Vins de la Correze

Vins de la Corrèze is the dePartmental Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) covering all wines produced in the department of Corrèze, in CentralFrance. Traditionally, Corrèze wine is made from grapes Dried on mats, which concentrates the sugars and produces a Rich, Sweet wine. The department is dominated by the Massif Central - the low mountain range that covers much of south-eastern France - and as such is not well suited to viticulture. There are no overlapping AOP appellations and only a small amount of wine is produced here, mainly in the lower south-western part of the department.

The IGP Vin de la Corrèze law allows wine produced to certain standards to be labelled as Vin Paille, or "straw wine". These wines, which come mainly from the vicinity of the villages of Meyssac and Queyssac, are made primarily from Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon for the red wines, and Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc for the white wines. Corrèze is located about 150 kilometres from the Atlantic coast and the vineyards of Bordeaux, and has a continental Climate with cold winters and hot summers. In the more mountainous parts of the region, this climate is too extreme for viticulture.

Discover the grape variety: Cabernet franc

Cabernet Franc is one of the oldest red grape varieties in Bordeaux. The Libourne region is its terroir where it develops best. The terroirs of Saint-Emilion and Fronsac allow it to mature and develop its best range of aromas. It is also the majority in many blends. The very famous Château Cheval Blanc, for example, uses 60% Cabernet Franc. The wines produced with Cabernet Franc are medium in colour with fine tannins and subtle aromas of small red fruits and spices. When blended with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, it brings complexity and a bouquet of aromas to the wine. It produces fruity wines that can be drunk quite quickly, but whose great vintages can be kept for a long time. It is an earlier grape variety than Cabernet Sauvignon, which means that it is planted as far north as the Loire Valley. In Anjou, it is also used to make sweet rosé wines. Cabernet Franc is now used in some twenty countries in Europe and throughout the world.
