The wine region of Puy-de-Dome
Volcanic Auvergne IGP at the heart of the Chaîne des Puys (basalts, pumice, red clays and pebbles): Gamay signature red king (~80%) — more tannic, spicy and floral (iris, violet) profile than in Beaujolais, contained nerviness preserved. Pinot Noir complementary signature — delicately liquorice notes, lightness and singular dynamism in difficult climate. Alternative grapes outside AOC Côtes d'Auvergne, slow minerality from volcanic soils.
The wine region of Val de Loire
France's most diverse vineyard, 800 km along the Loire (~48,300 ha). Flagship whites: lively, mineral Sauvignon from Sancerre-Pouilly (citrus, boxwood, gunflint), Loire Chenin from vibrant dry to noble sweet wines (quince, honey, taut acidity), Melon de Bourgogne of saline Muscadet on lees. Cabernet Franc reds (Chinon, Bourgueil, Saumur-Champigny): raspberry, bell pepper, graphite, silky tannins. Sparkling Cremants with brioche-apple notes.
The word of the wine: Effervescent
Any wine loaded with CO2 (carbon dioxide), which is revealed in the form of bubbles, reinforcing the freshness effect in the mouth. This gas production is the result of what is called the second fermentation in the bottle. It occurs in champagnes and sparkling wines such as crémants.
