Discover the grape variety: Tannat meunier
Deeply coloured and structured reds with a dense purple colour, firm and solid tannins, a powerful palate with preserved acidity, and signature aromas of black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant), spices and garrigue notes. Rare profile, close to classic Tannat. A rare felty-leafed (meunier) variation of Tannat, now marginal, preserved in South-West varietal collections for its heritage value and studied for its genetic interest.

The wine region of Baden
German capital of Pinot Noir (Spätburgunder): silky, fine reds with notes of red fruits, cherry, undergrowth and sweet spices, melted tannins. Round Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris), lively Weissburgunder, supple Müller-Thurgau, mineral Riesling. Germany's 3rd region (15,000 ha) in Baden-Württemberg facing Alsace, one of the country's warmest climates, volcanic soils at the Kaiserstuhl. Cradle of modern great German reds, elegant and fine.
The word of the wine: Performance
Quantity of grapes harvested per hectare. In AOC, the average yield is limited on the proposal of the appellation syndicate, validated by the Inao. The use of high-performance plant material (especially clones) and better control of vine diseases have increased yields. This is not without consequences on the quality of the wines (dilution) and on the state of the market (too much wine). We must not over-simplify: low yields are not synonymous with quality, and it is often in years with generous harvests that we find the greatest vintages (1982 and 1986 in Bordeaux, 1996 in Champagne, 1990 and 2005 in Burgundy...).
