The wine region of Madiran
South-West capital of age-worthy reds at the foot of the Pyrenees: signature Tannat as king red (60-80%) — black robe and powerful profile with notes of raspberry, blackberry, blackcurrant, plum, spices, liquorice, undergrowth and a leather touch, signature dense and nervy tannins, firm structure and 10-30 years ageing softening to velvet. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc as backup. AOC (1948) over Gers, Hautes-Pyrénées and Pyrénées-Atlantiques, clay-limestones and silico-clays.
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: Reduced
This is said of aromas that are reminiscent of a stale wine and that can be released when a long-closed bottle is opened. They generally fade with airing.
