The wine region of Muscat de Frontignan
Muscat de Frontignan is an appellation for naturally Sweet wines from Frontignan-la Peyrade, a town on the Mediterranean coast in the Languedoc-roussillon">Languedoc-Roussillon region of southern France. The wines are made only from Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains. It is also used in the other Muscats of Languedoc (Muscat de Lunel, Muscat de Mireval and Muscat de Saint-Jean-de-Minervois). It is considered the best member of the Muscat family.
The wine region of Languedoc-Roussillon
Languedoc (formerly Coteaux du Languedoc) is a key appellation used in the Languedoc-Roussillon wine region of southern France. It covers Dry table wines of all three colors (red, white and rosé) from the entire region, but leaves Sweet and Sparkling wines to other more specialized appellations. About 75% of all Languedoc wines are red, with the remaining 25% split roughly down the middle between whites and rosés. The appellation covers most of the Languedoc region and almost a third of all the vineyards in France.
The word of the wine: Tanin
A natural compound contained in the skin of the grape, the seed or the woody part of the bunch, the stalk. The maceration of red wines allows the extraction of tannins, which give the texture, the solidity and also the mellowness when the tannins are "ripe". The winemaker seeks above all to extract the tannins from the skin, the ripest and most noble. The tannins of the seed or stalk, which are "greener", especially in average years, give the wine hardness and astringency. The wines of Bordeaux (based on Cabernet and Merlot) are full of tannins, those of Burgundy much less so, with Pinot Noir containing little.
