The wine region of Haut-Pays

Vast historic vineyard of south-west France (upstream from Bordeaux along the Garonne, Lot, Tarn and Aveyron valleys), varied terroirs and climates. Négrette, Duras, Malbec, Tannat and Fer as indigenous signatures in full-bodied, structured reds with intense notes of black fruits, plum, violet, spice and a rustic character, firm ageing tannins. Colombard, Mauzac, Manseng and Loin de l'Oeil in lively, aromatic whites with citrus and exotic fruits. Authentic Gascon identity.

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.
