Discover the grape variety: Olivette noire
The exact origin of this variety is not known and it is not related to the white olivette. Today, it is very difficult to find the Olivette noire at wine nurseries because its multiplication is almost nil, registered however in the Official Catalogue of table grape varieties list A1. There is still the possibility of grafting it yourself, provided that you get grafts that are in a satisfactory state of health, which is not always the case.

The wine region of Bordeaux
Bordeaux, in southwestern France, is one of the most famous, prestigious and prolific wine regions in the world. The majority of Bordeaux wines (nearly 90% of the production Volume) are the Dry, medium and Full-bodied red Bordeaux blends for which it is famous. The finest (and most expensive) are the wines of the great châteaux of Haut-Médoc and the right bank appellations of Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. The former focuses (at the highest level) on Cabernet Sauvignon, the latter on Merlot.
The word of the wine: Stirring (champagne)
Manual operation (on a "desk") or mechanical (with a "gyropalette") which allows the deposit created by the yeasts (see tirage) to go down to the neck of the bottle for disgorging.
