Discover the grape variety: Négret Canourgue
Light, simply fruity reds with a pale ruby colour, soft tannins and a light palate with moderate acidity, featuring understated aromas of red fruits. Discreet rustic profile. Nearly extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its heritage value; it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West and is among the patrimonial varieties under study. Rare French black variety, once grown in the South-West.

The wine region of Muscat de Mireval
AOC natural sweet wine from the Languedoc (1959) on ~290 ha between Montpellier and Sète (Mireval, Vic-la-Gardiole), limestone soils on the windy Hérault coastline. Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains is the exclusive variety (100%, yield 28 hl/ha): pale vibrant gold, sweet and finely aromatic with intense fresh grape, white flowers, candied citrus, apricot and a delicate honeyed note. Lighter and more refined than its neighbour Frontignan. Aperitif or dessert wine.
The wine region of Languedoc-Roussillon
Largest single French vineyard, dominated by sunny, generous reds. Spicy Syrah, candied Grenache (ripe fruit, garrigue), structured Carignan, deep Mourvèdre, supple Cinsault. Stars: structured Corbières, Minervois, Faugères, Saint-Chinian; round Côtes-du-Roussillon. Legendary vins doux naturels: Banyuls and Maury (fortified Grenache) with notes of cocoa, fig, prune.
The word of the wine: Pruine
A thin, fluffy film that covers the surface of the grape. It makes the berry impermeable and contains the indigenous yeasts necessary for the fermentation of the must.
