The wine region of Maures
Var IGP around the Massif des Maures (Toulon to Fréjus, schists and sandstone, ventilated Mediterranean): Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah and Carignan signatures as rosé kings (68%) — pale robe, lively and fruity aromas. Rich reds (25%) with very silky fine tannins. Aromatic rounded whites led by Rolle (Vermentino), Ugni Blanc, Pinot Noir and Merlot in complement. Provençal rosé.
The wine region of Méditerranée
Vast IGP of south-east France (Provence, Vaucluse, Var, Corsica, Ardèche), 75% rosés. Fresh, fruity rosés with signature notes of strawberry, raspberry, citrus, white flowers and a Mediterranean touch, taut and thirst-quenching on the palate — the quintessential sunny aperitif. Supple reds blending Grenache, Syrah, Cabernet and Merlot (red fruits, garrigue, spice), full whites of Viognier (apricot, flowers) and Chardonnay. Generous everyday wines, expression of the south.
The word of the wine: Rafle (taste of)
A taste considered a defect, characterized by an unpleasant astringency and bitterness, brought by the stalk during the vinification process. In order to avoid it, destemming before vinification is a common practice.
