Discover the grape variety: Bourboulenc
Bourboulenc is mainly grown in the southern part of France. It is a white grape variety that ripens quite late. It can only be harvested around 25 September and for an average of only one month. Bourboulenc is particularly fond of low-lying, but at the same time warm and dry locations. The aroma of this grape variety is not very pronounced, but it has a certain exotic fruit and floral aroma such as broom. The result is a low alcohol wine with subtle and fleeting aromas. Blanquette, bourboulanc, bourboulenque, doucillon, clairette dorée and clairette blanche are all names that can designate bourboulenc. This grape variety is very sensitive to diseases common to all vine plants such as magnesium deficiency, mildew and oidium. Bourboulenc can be used as a table grape. Most French people keep the bunches until Christmas in order to present them on the festive table as desserts.

Created in May 1936, the Cassis appellation covers red, white and rosé wines produced from 200 hectares of vines, all located within a mile or two of the Mediterranean. (Despite its name, the village does not produce Crème de Cassis, the Sweet blackcurrant liqueur that is actually a specialty of Burgundy. ) The landscape around Cassis is that of classic Provence; Clear, blue Mediterranean waters and terracotta roofs overlooked by white limestone cliffs and surrounded by vineyards and Garrigue.

The region's Grape varieties, in particular, have come under scrutiny in recent decades. Traditional varieties such as Carignan, Barbaroux (Barbarossa from Sardinia) and Calitor are being replaced by more commercially viable varieties such as Grenache, Syrah and even Cabernet Sauvignon.
