Discover the grape variety: Bouchalès
Light and fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, barely noticeable tannins and a supple palate, with simple aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry, strawberry), soft spices and floral notes. A rustic airy profile to drink young. Often blended with Abouriou, Merlot and Cabernet Franc, it contributes to the AOC Côtes-du-Marmandais reds and reflects the South-West heritage. Native French black grape from the South-West (Côtes-du-Marmandais, Buzet).

The wine region of Monteregio di Massa Marittima
Tuscan DOC in coastal Maremma (Grosseto province, around Massa Marittima), Mediterranean climate tempered by the sea, varied soils. Sangiovese is king in reds (≥80% in Rosso, Riserva, Rosato and Novello): fruity and sun-drenched with notes of red cherry, plum, Mediterranean herbs, garrigue and a spicy touch, round tannins — authentic Maremma expression. Firm Cabernet Sauvignon and supple Merlot as complements. Saline Vermentino and Trebbiano Toscano (≥50%) in whites.
The wine region of Tuscany
Kingdom of Sangiovese: upright reds with cherry, plum, dried herbs and leather, lively acidity and firm tannins. Fleshy, food-friendly Chianti Classico DOCG, deep long-ageing Brunello di Montalcino (spice, tobacco, ripe black fruit), elegant Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. On the coast, Bolgheri crafts the opulent Cabernet- and Merlot-based 'Super Tuscans'. Some fresh white Vernaccia.
The word of the wine: Côte des Bar
This is the name given to the vineyards of the Aube, which are closer to Burgundy, and some of the wines produced here bear witness to this proximity. The pinot noir dominates, the meunier is practically absent. Two crus have become references: Riceys, where a rosé without bubbles is also produced, and Montgueux near Troyes, renowned for its Chardonnay.
