Details and technical informations about Winery Lidl's Expression de Saint Mont.
Discover the grape variety: Manseng
Light and fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, fine tannins and fresh acidity, with aromas of red fruits (raspberry, redcurrant), spices and herbaceous notes. An airy, easy-drinking style. Preserved in a few heritage plots in Béarn and the French Basque Country for its historical value. A very rare autochthonous south-west variety, with no direct genetic link to the white petit and gros manseng despite the shared name.

The wine region of Saint-Mont
South West AOC on the Pyrenean piedmont (Gers, AOC 2011, ~1,250 ha): Tannat signature red king complemented by Pinenc (Fer Servadou), Cabernet Sauvignon and Tardif — signature imposing tannic structure from Tannat, dark robe and exceptional ageing, aromatic finesse of Pinenc with fresh red fruits softening the frame. Gros Manseng, Petit Courbu and Arrufiac in aromatic whites. White clay-limestone soils, Gascon tawny sands, degraded oceanic climate.
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: Pigeage
Operation consisting of a vertical treading to push the cap of marc into the wine, which promotes extraction. Pigeage can be carried out mechanically with jacks that plunge into the vat. Traditionally, it is the men who go down into the vats and push the cap by trampling it.
