The wine region of Monbazillac
World's largest sweet AOC south of Bergerac (South-West): signature Sémillon as king white with Sauvignon and Muscadelle — medium-sweet to botrytized sweet wines with opulent notes of honey, candied apricot, quince, pineapple, mango, beeswax, saffron and a touch of spice, unctuousness balanced by fine acidity. Successive picking of noble grapes mandatory. AOC (1936), ~2,320 ha on clay-limestone slopes, morning mists favoring Botrytis cinerea, 10-50 year aging.
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: Green
