The wine region of Côtes de Thau
Languedoc IGP northeast of the Thau lagoon (Hérault, 6 communes, 55,000 hl/year): Picpoul de Pinet and Terret Blanc as flagship whites (75%) — fresh attack, bright citrus and white flower aromatics, pale colour. Chardonnay, Muscat, Sauvignon Blanc and Vermentino as complements. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault in reds and rosés. Lagoonal influence and sea spray, distinctive saline freshness.
The wine region of Pays d'Oc
The single-grape IGP par excellence: modern, accessible, frank and fruity wines, the popular signature of the Midi. Spicy Syrah reds (pepper, blackberry), round Merlot, structured Cabernet, generous Grenache, supple Cinsault. Crisp, tangy rosés. Opulent Chardonnay whites, lively Sauvignon, floral, apricoty Viognier.
The word of the wine: Chaptalization
The addition of sugar at the time of fermentation of the must, an ancient practice, but theorized by Jean-Antoine Chaptal at the dawn of the 19th century. The sugar is transformed into alcohol and allows the natural degree of the wine to be raised in a weak or cold year, or - more questionably - when the winegrower has a harvest that is too large to obtain good maturity.
