The wine region of Côtes du Brian
IGP from north-west Hérault crossing the Minervois La Livinière (13 communes, plots at 250–350 m on south-facing terraces and slopes at the edge of the causse, varied schist-marl-limestone-molasse soils, Mediterranean with hot dry summers tempered by dry north-west winds). Carignan, Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre as southern signature varieties in full-bodied reds — profiles of red and black fruits, garrigue and spices, with good altitude-preserved acidity.
The wine region of Pays d'Oc
The single-grape IGP par excellence: modern, accessible, frank and fruity wines, the popular signature of the Midi. Spicy Syrah reds (pepper, blackberry), round Merlot, structured Cabernet, generous Grenache, supple Cinsault. Crisp, tangy rosés. Opulent Chardonnay whites, lively Sauvignon, floral, apricoty Viognier.
The word of the wine: Wooded
A set of aromas brought about by ageing in barrels (usually oak). This can be pleasant when, in small doses, it brings a touch of spice, roast or vanilla to an already constructed ensemble. When the violent woodiness dominates the wine, it is quickly tiring. Easily identifiable aromatically, it is sought after (to the point of abuse) by the makers of coarse wines. New World manufacturers and, alas, some French winemakers use oak chips to impart the woody taste, which is tantamount to artificial flavoring.
