Supple and fruity reds with a sustained ruby colour, silky tannins and an airy palate with preserved acidity, featuring aromas of red fruits (raspberry, pomegranate), sweet spices and peppery notes. Discreet southern profile. Preserved for its heritage value, it survives in a few heritage plots in the Tarn and at Fronton, and is among the ancient South-West grape varieties under study. French autochthonous black grape from the South-West.

The wine region of Provence
World capital of dry, refined rosé (~90% of production). Pale rose-petal colour, delicate nose of fresh red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant), citrus (pink grapefruit), white flowers and a mineral touch, taut and thirst-quenching palate — the Mediterranean aperitif par excellence. Blends of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Tibouren and Mourvèdre. Fleshy Bandol reds from Mourvèdre (leather, garrigue, age-worthy), straight Cassis whites.
The word of the wine: Sorting
Action which consists in removing the bad grains, not ripe or affected by the rot. We often use vibrating sorting tables which, by shaking, make the impurities fall to the ground. In the case of sweet wines, we speak of harvesting by successive selections, in several passages, to select the very ripe grapes each time.
