The wine region of Var
Vast Provençal IGP in the hinterland of the Côte d'Azur: signature Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah and Tibouren as royal rosés — pale and fruity with notes of peach, citrus, strawberry, white flowers and a hint of spice, signature chiselled freshness, the regional flagship. Mourbèdre and Carignan in sun-drenched reds (cherry, garrigue). Vermentino, Ugni Blanc and Clairette in floral whites. IGP, sunny Mediterranean, limestone and schist soils, cleansing mistral.
The wine region of Méditerranée
Vast IGP of south-east France (Provence, Vaucluse, Var, Corsica, Ardèche), 75% rosés. Fresh, fruity rosés with signature notes of strawberry, raspberry, citrus, white flowers and a Mediterranean touch, taut and thirst-quenching on the palate — the quintessential sunny aperitif. Supple reds blending Grenache, Syrah, Cabernet and Merlot (red fruits, garrigue, spice), full whites of Viognier (apricot, flowers) and Chardonnay. Generous everyday wines, expression of the south.
The word of the wine: Tanin
A natural compound contained in the skin of the grape, the seed or the woody part of the bunch, the stalk. The maceration of red wines allows the extraction of tannins, which give the texture, the solidity and also the mellowness when the tannins are "ripe". The winemaker seeks above all to extract the tannins from the skin, the ripest and most noble. The tannins of the seed or stalk, which are "greener", especially in average years, give the wine hardness and astringency. The wines of Bordeaux (based on Cabernet and Merlot) are full of tannins, those of Burgundy much less so, with Pinot Noir containing little.
