Deeply coloured and structured reds with a dark ruby colour, firm tannins and a full palate with preserved acidity, featuring signature aromas of black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant) and southern spices (garrigue, pepper). Distinctive Aveyron identity. Now rare, preserved for its heritage value; it survives in a few Aveyron plots and belongs to the ancient South-West varieties under study.

The wine region of Landes

IGP of the South-West (Landes, ~19,000 hl/year, humid oceanic climate, sandy-acidic to clay-limestone soils): signature Colombard, Ugni Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Gros Manseng as white kings (60%) — dry, fresh, fruity and well-balanced profile with floral and citrus notes. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Tannat in powerful structured reds (25%). Charming and fleshy roses (15%). Warm sunny late seasons favourable to intense aromatic over-ripening.

The wine region of Comté Tolosan

IGP covering all of southwest France across 12 departments, a broad and accessible palette. On the Garonne right bank, supple reds dominate: signature Merlot with signature notes of plum, ripe cherry, cocoa and a herbaceous touch, round tannins. Firm Cabernet, spicy Syrah, tannic local Tannat. Left bank for whites: vivid Colombard and Gros Manseng (citrus, grapefruit, exotic fruits), aromatic Sauvignon.

The word of the wine: Muscat blanc à petits grains

A white grape variety cultivated since antiquity on the shores of the Mediterranean, it is considered the noblest of the muscats. It is mainly used to make sweet wines, often from mutage. In France, it is the sole variety used in many natural sweet wines: muscat-de-frontignan, muscat-de-mireval, muscat-de-lunel, muscat-de-saint-jean-de-minervois, muscat-de-beaumes-de-venise, muscat-du-cap-corse. Combined with Muscat d'Alexandrie, it gives Muscat-de-Rivesaltes. It is also used to make sparkling white wines (clairette-de-die; moscato d'asti and asti spumante in Italy) and dry wines (alsace-muscat). Powerfully aromatic and complex, its wines evoke fresh grapes, roses, exotic fruits, citrus fruits and spices.
