The wines of this appellation

the red wines, drawn from Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Malbec boast an attractive colour. They are powerful, fleshy, round wines displaying aromas of red fruit in brandy and spices. They can be served with garbure soup, black pudding, boiled chicken… The rosés are made using the ‘bleeding’ process, and display a floral nose with red fruit (blackcurrant). They are lively, ethereal wines, well-balanced, combining freshness, roundness and fruitiness with a long aromatic finish. They are perfect partners for cooked cold pork meats. The dry white wines (Semillon, Sauvignon, Muscadelle, Chenin blanc, Ugni blanc) are racy and lively (tangerine, lemon, floral notes, hazelnut). Enjoy them with shad in a sorrel sauce or eel in a parsley and garlic sauce. The sweet white wines, made from overripe grapes, exhibit a brilliant straw-yellow hue. They are unctuous, fat and well-balanced with great aromatic length. Aromas of crystallised fruit, acacia, honey, caramel, prune, crystallised orange… are all present. Perfect with foie gras or desserts.
