Discover the grape variety: Blanc Auba
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate and moderate acidity. Understated aromas of citrus and Pyrenean white flowers. Rustic, airy profile. Almost extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections; it reflects the pre-phylloxera viticultural heritage of south-west France and is among the ancient varieties under study. A native white grape from France, once grown in Béarn and Tursan.

The wine region of Marcillac
Aveyron AOC in the Rouergue (200 ha north-west of Rodez, iron-oxide-rich "rougiers", clay-limestone soils, continental/oceanic/Mediterranean crossroads): Fer Servadou (local Mansois) is king in reds (≥80%, often 100%) — powerfully aromatic and spicy with red and black fruits, peppery and herbaceous notes, distinctive powerful tannins; the grape grown almost exclusively here. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot as complements. AOC 1990.
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: Douçâtre
Soft wine with a dominant sweetness at the expense of freshness.
