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: Fleshy
Said of a wine that gives the impression of being dense and smooth, a bit like biting into the flesh of a ripe fruit.
