The wine region of Côtes de Bergerac
Higher hierarchy of the Bergeracois in Périgord: structured complex reds — dominant Merlot blended with Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Côt, deep robe, aromas of candied fruits and prune, sturdy tannins suitable for 5-10 years of aging. Sweet generous whites on Sémillon, Sauvignon and Muscadelle with notes of honey, candied fruits and apricot, round and fresh palate. Clay-limestone soils, more demanding identity than generic Bergerac.
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: Petite arvine
An ancient white grape variety from the Valais (Switzerland), which produces renowned wines suitable for ageing. Viney and sustained by a strong vivacity, these wines express a fine salty touch, the signature of this variety. Petite arvine wines can be dry, tender or made from withered grapes from late harvesting. Syn.: arvine.
