Discover the grape variety: Blancard
Simple dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity and understated aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Now almost extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West vineyard and belongs to the heritage grape varieties being studied. Rare French white grape, once cultivated in the South-West.

The wine region of Wagram
Austrian plateau north of the Danube on deep loess: signature Grüner Veltliner DAC (2021) as king white — spicy and peppery with notes of citrus, yellow fruits, lentil and a loessic mineral touch, remarkable texture and structure. Roter Veltliner, an emblematic grape unique to Wagram (a rare native white despite its name) — full-bodied, complex and age-worthy. Riesling completes it. Aeolian loess over alluvial gravels, continental climate tempered by Danube breezes — strong character.
The wine region of Weinland
Vast German-speaking region in north-eastern Switzerland, the country's largest production area. Signature Pinot Noir (Blauburgunder): fine, fresh reds with notes of cherry, raspberry, undergrowth and sweet spices, silky tannins. Elegant, delicate style, often barrel-aged. Also light, floral Müller-Thurgau (Riesling-Sylvaner), lively, lemony native Räuschling, ample Pinot Gris.
The word of the wine: Wooded
A set of aromas brought about by ageing in barrels (usually oak). This can be pleasant when, in small doses, it brings a touch of spice, roast or vanilla to an already constructed ensemble. When the violent woodiness dominates the wine, it is quickly tiring. Easily identifiable aromatically, it is sought after (to the point of abuse) by the makers of coarse wines. New World manufacturers and, alas, some French winemakers use oak chips to impart the woody taste, which is tantamount to artificial flavoring.
