Discover the grape variety: Serna
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour, a supple palate with moderate acidity and understated aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections for its heritage value; belongs to the old varieties whose commercial diffusion has almost disappeared and which are studied for their genetic and historical interest. Rare, poorly documented white variety cultivated in negligible quantities.

The wine region of Perigord
Dordogne IGP in Nouvelle-Aquitaine (vast around Bergerac and Domme along the valley): Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Côt (Malbec) signatures in red and rosé kings — signature fine structure with ripe fruit aromas, suppleness and velvet drawn from varietal complementarity, sometimes slightly grainy tannins characteristic. Signature limestone, clay and sand soils, tempered oceanic climate with continental influences, optimal ripening.
The wine region of Atlantique
Nouvelle-Aquitaine regional IGP covering the Bordeaux area outside AOC (Gironde, Charentes, Dordogne, northern Lot-et-Garonne). Vast palette for gourmet everyday wines. Supple fruity Merlot reds (plum, cherry, blackberry), firm Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, cedar), peppery Cabernet Franc, light Gamay. Lively Sauvignon whites (citrus, boxwood), round Chardonnay, tense Chenin, fresh Colombard.
The word of the wine: Maceration
Prolonged contact and exchange between the juice and the grape solids, especially the skin. Not to be confused with the time of fermentation, which follows maceration. The juice becomes loaded with colouring matter and tannins, and acquires aromas. For a rosé, the maceration is short so that the colour does not "rise" too much. For white wines too, a "pellicular maceration" can be practised, which allows the wine to acquire more fat.
