The wine region of Muscat de Rivesaltes
Star AOC of Roussillon's Vins Doux Naturels: Muscat a Petits Grains and Muscat of Alexandria as signatures in equal parts in sweet whites — pale gold robe with green or pinkish glints, dazzling signature aromas of peach, lemon, mango, fresh grape, rose and mint, unctuous palate preserved by mutage with alcohol. Amber evolution with age toward honey, candied apricot and spices. AOC, ~4,400 ha across 99 communes, varied soils (granite, schist, limestone), Mediterranean and Muscat de Noel.
The wine region of Languedoc-Roussillon
Largest single French vineyard, dominated by sunny, generous reds. Spicy Syrah, candied Grenache (ripe fruit, garrigue), structured Carignan, deep Mourvèdre, supple Cinsault. Stars: structured Corbières, Minervois, Faugères, Saint-Chinian; round Côtes-du-Roussillon. Legendary vins doux naturels: Banyuls and Maury (fortified Grenache) with notes of cocoa, fig, prune.
The word of the wine: Density per hectare
Number of vines per hectare. For the same yield, a vine planted with 3,000 vines per hectare bears many more bunches (per vine) than a vine planted with 10,000. The grapes will therefore be less rich in sugar and polyphenols (tannins, aromas...).
