Details and technical informations about Winery Légion Étrangère's Cuvée du Terroir Côtes de Provence Blanc.
Discover the grape variety: Fruhroter Veltliner
Structured and full dry whites with a pale, slightly rosé golden robe, an ample palate and moderate acidity, with signature aromas of almond, ripe yellow fruits (pear, peach, apricot), white flowers (acacia) and mineral notes. A sun-drenched profile appreciated in characterful artisanal cuvées. Grown mainly in Lower Austria (Kamptal, Wagram), rarer than Grüner Veltliner. Native Austrian grey grape, an early-ripening reddish-skinned mutation of Roter Veltliner.

Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah and native Tibouren in the blend. A few fleshy Mediterranean reds (Mourvèdre, Syrah) and saline Vermentino whites.
The wine region of Provence
World capital of dry, refined rosé (~90% of production). Pale rose-petal colour, delicate nose of fresh red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant), citrus (pink grapefruit), white flowers and a mineral touch, taut and thirst-quenching palate — the Mediterranean aperitif par excellence. Blends of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Tibouren and Mourvèdre. Fleshy Bandol reds from Mourvèdre (leather, garrigue, age-worthy), straight Cassis whites.
The word of the wine: Guyot (pruning)
This is the most widespread pruning technique. It includes one or two long branches and allows the mechanization of a large number of vineyard operations.
