The wine region of Gaillac-Premières-Côtes
White AOC (~15 ha) on the right bank of the Tarn northeast of Toulouse — the highest slopes of the Gaillac area: Mauzac dominant with Len de l'el, Muscadelle and Ondenc in dry whites with white flowers, white fruits and exotic fruit notes. Clay-limestone soils ideal for Mauzac. Dual climatic influence: oceanic bringing rain and mild temperatures, Mediterranean offering hot summers and fine autumn sunshine. Authentic expression of local Mauzac.
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: Thermoregulation
Control of the vinification temperatures (by circulating hot or cold water on the walls of the vats, for example). This is a major step forward, which in particular helps to preserve the freshness of the aromas threatened by excessive temperature rises during fermentation.
