The wines of this appellation

the appellation produces red, rosé and white wines. With their attractive cherry colour, the reds are powerful, deep, fleshy, tannic wines, reminiscent of wines from Graves. Both wines in fact share virtually identical varietal ranges. Predominant aromas for the reds are ripe red fruit, animal notes and spices. The rosés are fresh and fruity, they are pleasantly nervous without becoming acidic. They exhibit fragrances of small red fruit and pear drops. The white wines are delicate, with a pleasant bouquet, nervous yet well-balanced, they retain freshness. They display floral notes, toasted almonds, ripe fruit (peach). The red wines pair with duck breast, preserved meats, rabbit with prunes. The rosés match with cooked cold pork meats, grilled white or red meats and the whites with foie gras, fish, freshwater whitebait or goats’ cheese.
