The wine region of Bergerac Sec
Dry white AOC of South Périgord: signature dominant Sauvignon Blanc blended with Sémillon, Sauvignon Gris and Muscadelle (≥75% main varieties) — lively, fresh whites with pale gold robe, delicate nose of apricot, peach, citrus and white flowers, aromatic palate with crisp attack and good length. Clay-limestone and boulbène soils, temperate South-West climate. Accessible alternative to white Bordeaux, drink young with seafood, grilled fish and goat cheeses.
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: INAO glass
Glass adapted to wine tasting, created in the 1970s by the Institut national des appellations d'origine. At the time, it had the advantage of offering a standardised tool to all tasters. It is characterized by a wide base that allows for good ventilation and a narrow mouth (opening of the glass) to concentrate the aromas. Many high-performance glasses have been created based on this model.
