Discover the grape variety: Muscadelle
Aromatic, fruity whites with a tender palate, with intense aromas of muscat, white flowers, honey, candied citrus and floral notes (no genetic link to the muscat family). Minor component in the great botrytised dessert wines of Sauternes, Barsac, Cérons and Monbazillac, adding perfume and freshness. Also dry in Entre-Deux-Mers. Made as sumptuous fortified wines in Australia (Rutherglen Topaque). French variety from Bordeaux and the South-West.

The wine region of Saussignac
Bergerac AOC (1982, devoted to noble sweet wines) benefiting from autumn morning mists favouring botrytis cinerea. Sémillon is the king (ideal skins for noble rot), complemented by Sauvignon, Muscadelle and Chenin. Deep golden robe, generous and unctuous: candied aromas of acacia, lime blossom, apricot, peach, quince, mango, gentle spices, honey and vanilla. Successive tries, minimum 18 g/l residual sugar, rich and refined.
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: Size (champagne)
Juices that flow from the press after the cuvée, at the second pressing. Less fine, often more vegetal, it is mainly used to make the first price champagnes.
