  • Brachetto D'acqui DOCG | 75 Cl
    Piemonte Guasti Clemente Brachetto d'Acqui DOCG | 75 cl Brachetto is an aromatic red Italian wine grape variety grown predominantly in the Piedmont region of northwest Italy. At one time the grape was thought to be related to the French wine grape Braquet, but recent thought among ampelographers is that the two are distinct varieties. In Italy’s region of Piedmont the grape is somewhat more widespread: production mostly falling within an area of the provinces of Asti and Alessandria between the rivers Bormida and Belbo plus various parts of the province of Cuneo. The most notable wine here is the red Brachetto d'Acqui Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita (DOCG) which is mainly known in the fully sparkling version. DENOMINATION: Brachetto d'Acqui DOCG GRAPES: 100% Brachetto REGION: Vineyards are situated in the area of Mombaruzzo. SOIL COMPOSITION: Chalky and clay soil. VINE TRAINING SYSTEM: Simple Guyot HARVEST: Manual harvest of the grapes between the end of August and the beginning of September. PRESSING: Soft pressing of the grapes. VINIFICATION: Slow fermentation of the must and sparkling process in autoclave. AGEING: The wine stays in the autoclave for at least two months and then it is cold fill bottled. ALCOHOL: 6.50 % vol TASTING NOTES: Lively, medium-intense, ruby-red colour. Wide-ranging nose and with an aromatic touch that distinguishes it, very delicate. Best served at a temperature of 10-12°C. FOOD PAIRING: At the end of the meal it pairs with sweets and fruit, excellent with strawberries. Code: GS BRACH Distribuito da: Viver Distribuzione S.r.l.

Specific vignerons visited and detailed notes on each visit will be posted and provided on my website at www.vtwines.info. Click on 2007 French Study Tour. Languedoc. The visit began with a tour of several Languedoc vignerons. This area is considered by many to be the most innovative in France, producing soft rustic red blends based on several of the traditional Mediterranean grapes used in the southern Rhône valley, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Grenache and/or Carignan. The vin de pays wines are far less traditional and seem to dominate. The producers we visited were not concerned with not bottling under AOC appellation labels. The soils of the region vary notably from alluvial near the sea to more chalk, gravel and limestone. Many of the better vineyards, such as Mas de Daumas Gassac, that we visited are planted not on the plain but on relatively high, cool plateaus. Institut Coopératif du Vin (ICV).

This was an idea we had back in 2009, when for the first time the Tour de France stopped overnight at nearby Brignoles. We did a last minute job of concocting a food and wine companion to that Tour, just for our own consumption and have been considering repeating it on a larger scale, ever since. And this year is the obvious choice: It’s the centenary. It’s the first time for ages it’s being held JUST in France. We’ve got some great British cyclists competing. And plenty of stages are taking place in the south, where we know the food and wine only too well…. So let’s get on with it – bonne route, et bon appétit! A GUIDE TO THE CONTENTS OF OUR TOUR OF THE TOUR. PART ONE. Pages 2-5. The Appetiser. A summary of the tour, day by day, with a brief description of our matched foods and wine. PART TWO. Page 6.

  • Franck Peillot Profile
    Franck Peillot Profile The Bugey is small viticultural area whose fame doesn't extend much farther than the city of Lyons, where its sparkling Cerdon and Montagnieu have long been staples in bistros. Located in the eastern part of the Ain department, which is better known for its poulet de Bresse (the only French poultry with its own AOC) and its freshwater fish, the Bugey is a series of low altitude hills forming the most southern tip of the Jura range. In distance, it is closer to Savoie than to viticultural Jura, so, if mentioned at all, it is often considered a part of Savoie. Winemakers in the Bugey beg to differ. They feel that their region has a soil and a climate all its own, which produce wines found nowhere else in France (Cerdon being the less obscure example of Bugey's originality). Montagnieu is a village south of Cerdon, with premières côtes overlooking the Rhône valley, and most of its production is a white sparkling wine made from Chardonnay, Roussette de Savoie, Gamay and Jacquère. The grape Roussette is called Altesse locally, and it survives in the Bugey in a few patches of old vines, for it is not as hardy, reliable and productive as others. Only two young winemakers in Montagnieu, Franck Peillot and Benoît Dumont, produce still wines exclusively from this grape. By law, the wine, Roussette du Bugey, can contain any white varietal, in any proportion. That's why Peillot's is labelled 100% Altesse. Peillot, who took over his family estate five years ago, carries on the work of 4 generations before him.
