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: Pinot meunier

Cultivated in the 19th century in all the northern vineyards, this black grape variety has largely regressed since. Very present in the Marne valley, it constitutes a third of the vineyards in Champagne, alongside pinot noir and chardonnay with which it is often blended. It brings roundness and red and yellow fruit aromas to champagnes. Pinot meunier is also the dominant grape variety in red and rosé wines in the Orleans AOC and the rare Touraine-Noble-Joué, a grey wine. Syn.: meunier.
