Region: Southwest France

Country: France

Tasting profile

Structure: medium-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, dry

A dry white from South-West France, whose name nods to Occitan, the historic language of the whole southern half of the country. The varieties are not recorded, and the region's options genuinely differ — Colombard and Ugni Blanc for neutral citrus crispness, Gros Manseng for exotic intensity, Mauzac for baked apple. The common thread is high acidity and a lean, fresh frame; these are cut and vivid whites rather than rich ones. Expect lemon and green apple with stone fruit and a clean saline finish. Serve properly cold.
