Discover the grape variety: Herbemont
Simple whites or rosés with the typical foxy taste of a hybrid, a pale golden to rosé robe, a supple palate and preserved acidity, with aromas of red fruits, raspberry, flowers and herbal notes. Phylloxera-resistant. One of the six hybrids banned in France since 1935 (alongside Clinton, Jacquez, Noah). Still present in heritage gardens of the South-West and Cévennes. American hybrid derived from Vitis aestivalis, discovered around 1810 by Nicholas Herbemont.

The wine region of Tuscany
Kingdom of Sangiovese: upright reds with cherry, plum, dried herbs and leather, lively acidity and firm tannins. Fleshy, food-friendly Chianti Classico DOCG, deep long-ageing Brunello di Montalcino (spice, tobacco, ripe black fruit), elegant Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. On the coast, Bolgheri crafts the opulent Cabernet- and Merlot-based 'Super Tuscans'. Some fresh white Vernaccia.
The word of the wine: Maceration
Prolonged contact and exchange between the juice and the grape solids, especially the skin. Not to be confused with the time of fermentation, which follows maceration. The juice becomes loaded with colouring matter and tannins, and acquires aromas. For a rosé, the maceration is short so that the colour does not "rise" too much. For white wines too, a "pellicular maceration" can be practised, which allows the wine to acquire more fat.
