Discovering the wine region of Fitou

Fitou is a red wine appellation in the heart of the Languedoc-Roussillon wine region in southern France. The wine takes its name from a small Village located a few kilometres from the Mediterranean coast. The typical Fitou wine is not dissimilar to the reds produced in the neighbouring Corbières (i. e.

rustic, Herbaceous, leathery, medium-bodied and moderately Tannic). Both appellations use the same Grape varieties, and the Terroir of the southern Corbières is very similar to that of Fitou. The distinction between them is one of tradition and pride. Any proposal to absorb the Fitou appellation into the Corbières would be strongly resisted by the proud producers of Fitou.

Carignan is traditionally the emblematic grape variety of Fitou. Today, it shares the spotlight with Grenache.

Discover the grape variety: Carignan

Mainly cultivated in the Languedoc region, carignan originates from Spain. Because of its very resistant branches, it is often called hardwood. Its bunches are quite large. They are compact and winged with a lignified stalk. The berries are spherical in shape and take on a bluish-black colour. Carignan has a total of 25 approved clones, the best known of which are 274, 65 and 9. The carignan buds at the beginning of June and is protected from spring frosts. It does not reach maturity until the third period. Also, this grape variety needs warmth and sunshine. It appreciates dry and not very fertile soils. Carignan vines can live for more than 100 years. Those that are more than 30 years old produce a better wine. This wine is well coloured. It is generous and powerful at the same time. Pepper, cherry, blackberry, banana, raspberry, almond, prune and violet are some of the aromas that this grape variety gives off.

The word of the wine: Overmaturation

When the grapes reach maturity, the skin becomes permeable and progressively loses water, which causes a concentration phenomenon inside the berry. This is called over-ripening or passerillage.
