The wine region of Côtes du Marmandais
Sud-Ouest AOC on both banks of the Garonne, Bordeaux-Toulouse confluence. Oceanic climate, clay-limestone and gravel slopes. Signature Abouriou as native early-ripening variety saved after phylloxera: coloured and fruity reds with cherry, raspberry, blackberry, violet and spice, fine tannins. Blended with supple Merlot, firm Cabernet, dense Malbec and peppery Syrah.
The wine region of South West
French mosaic of strong identities south of Bordeaux. Cahors and its Malbec ("black wine"): deep reds with notes of blackberry, plum, violet, tobacco and cocoa, firm tannins. Madiran and its dense, age-worthy Tannat. Jurançon whites: golden sweet (apricot, honey, pineapple) and lively dry from Petit Manseng.
The word of the wine: Maturing (champagne)
After riddling, the bottles are stored on "point", upside down, with the neck of one bottle in the bottom of the other. The duration of this maturation is very important: in contact with the dead yeasts, the wine takes on subtle aromas and gains in roundness and fatness. A brut without year must remain at least 15 months in the cellar after bottling, a vintage 36 months.
