The wine region of Navarre
Spanish reference for great Garnacha rosés: raspberry-pink colour, notes of crushed strawberry, cherry, citrus and white flowers, dry and gourmet palate. The emblematic grape (~70% of reds in the past), also in supple, sun-filled reds. Tempranillo on the rise in modern blends, fine spicy Graciano, Cabernet and Merlot. Fresh Chardonnay and Viura whites.
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.
