The wine region of Agenais
IGP of Lot-et-Garonne (both banks of the Garonne, southern-facing hills on the right bank, northern slopes on the left, balanced oceanic-Toulouse climate). Merlot and Cabernets as Aquitaine signature reds blended with the almost-extinct native Abouriou (phylloxera survivor bringing fine tannins) — lightly fruity profile with well-structured and pleasant tannins. Bouchalès, Côt, Tannat, Syrah and Gamay as complements. Oak-aged versions richer, fleshier and more complex.
The wine region of Comté Tolosan
IGP covering all of southwest France across 12 departments, a broad and accessible palette. On the Garonne right bank, supple reds dominate: signature Merlot with signature notes of plum, ripe cherry, cocoa and a herbaceous touch, round tannins. Firm Cabernet, spicy Syrah, tannic local Tannat. Left bank for whites: vivid Colombard and Gros Manseng (citrus, grapefruit, exotic fruits), aromatic Sauvignon.
The word of the wine: VDQS
Delimited wine of superior quality. A level of appellation (today, barely 1% of French production) which constitutes the ultimate step before the accession to the AOC.
