The wine region of Gascogne

Gers South-West IGP on the Armagnac territory, 90% lively, aromatic whites. Signature Colombard (~50%): explosive notes of citrus, grapefruit, exotic fruits, box and a floral touch, taut and thirst-quenching palate — the summer aperitif at gentle prices. More neutral Ugni Blanc (also Armagnac base), herbaceous Sauvignon, more ample Gros and Petit Manseng (yellow fruits, honey). Oceanic temperate climate on "boulbènes" soils.

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.
