The wine region of Monbazillac
World's largest sweet AOC south of Bergerac (South-West): signature Sémillon as king white with Sauvignon and Muscadelle — medium-sweet to botrytized sweet wines with opulent notes of honey, candied apricot, quince, pineapple, mango, beeswax, saffron and a touch of spice, unctuousness balanced by fine acidity. Successive picking of noble grapes mandatory. AOC (1936), ~2,320 ha on clay-limestone slopes, morning mists favoring Botrytis cinerea, 10-50 year aging.
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: Flavours
There are generally four so-called fundamental flavours: acidity, bitterness, sweetness and saltiness. The first three are considered to be the building blocks of the structure of wines. They are perceived by the taste buds that cover the surface of the tongue.
