The wine region of Devon
County of south-west England along a 20 km coastal strip between Lyme Regis and Torquay, temperate oceanic climate warmed by the Gulf Stream. Signature traditional-method sparkling wines: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier with fine bubbles of green apple, lemon, white flowers, brioche and chalky notes. Signature Bacchus in still whites (Sauvignon-like, elderflower, citrus, lively). Madeleine Angevine, Seyval Blanc and Solaris for hybrid whites.
The wine region of England
Quality renaissance of English wine, signature in traditional-method sparklers. On chalk soils identical to Champagne's (South-East), fine, taut bubbles with signature notes of green apple, lemon, white flowers, brioche and chalk, the vivid acidity of a cool climate. Based on Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier. Still wines a minority: aromatic Bacchus (elderflower, cut grass — the English identity), fresh Pinot Noir.
The word of the wine: Cinsault
Cinsault is a southern black grape variety that can be found in the blends of most Mediterranean appellations, but most often as an accessory grape variety. It is undoubtedly most present in certain rosé wines (in Corbières, Côtes-de-Provence, etc.): it gives these wines highly appreciated aromas of strawberry, peach and raspberry. In vin de pays (IGP), it is often vinified on its own, usually as a rosé.
