The wine region of Montravel
Local AOC of the Bergerac area (Dordogne, clay-limestone and boulbènes): Sémillon, Sauvignon and Muscadelle signatures in dry white kings (Sauvignon dominant) — aromatic and mineral with generous structure, marked minerality, residual sugar <=3 g/l. Mandatory Merlot in red king complemented by Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Côt — deep robe with black fruits and ripe tannins of remarkable finesse.
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: Astringency
Chemical stimulation that tightens the mucous membranes of the mouth and causes a sensation of harshness, which is characteristic of the presence of tannins. With time, the tannins lose their harshness and become softer.
