France The French Way

If there is one thing that truly sets a French apart it’s a wine we talked with some leading wine experts about the vineyards of Provence the wine is a important part of first of all to cook the foods because you have to use certain wines to use we certain meat for

Cooking first and then after that itself or drinking when you eat and so you have different wines which goes with different foods most people don’t consider even an ordinary meal without having a glass of wine but of course here we are very lucky that we are surrounded by vineyards at very affordable prices

We can go straight to the cooperatives and buy our wine a good table wine for twelve to fifteen francs a bottle or you can buy it in vacuum-packed a box is now at about ten francs Alita you can buy as many five or ten liter boxes and it’s

Exactly the same one that goes into the bottles because here if we’re honest it’s almost cheaper to drink the local wine you’re the district for the red ones what we’re talking about the principal grape variety is Grenache and most of the vineyards throughout their own area including

Chateau d’If use a lot of Grenache in some cases and probably the best Stratton of rare see use of hundred percent and Grenache most of the videos though that we use syrup as well sarah adds some strength to the fruity Grenache loosing a good balance one and

That I might just say our top wine here clover Latour is 50% Gwinnett 50% syrup also there are there’s more Vedra another variety used it’s slightly late we don’t use it here because we’re too high and it’s used quite a lot in the Rhone Valley especially at beau Castel

Uses red for your total momentum in chateauneuf-du-pape it is principally Grenache Syrah and more vedam but there are a lot of other grape varieties which are allowed in some cases it’s a bit of a fast and in some vineyards they probably got two or three vines of one

Variety and they can use 1214 or something like that but not many vineyards have got a large quantity of these fairly rare vines so it become more of a publicity story from the van – you’ve got the mountains which give you some kind of wine with limestone is not

Like your shuttin of the pub cetology pub is stone and so really really really hold the old vineyards the van – is quite friendly young I’d say and the wines are really moved lighter include Devon – done – Donald apart of course the helpful degree is completely different in co2 Devon – you

Could have a two and half to thirteen chateauneuf-du-pape like a vintage 1991-1995 could go to 16 degrees so because the Grenache the Grenache is the most important grape variety whose give you the power you have to age in a whole barrel and live in a long time but

The mainly thing is the shuttin of the pub is one of the most important wine of the world I think the quality at chateauneuf-du-pape is strictly esteemed but we’re talking about perhaps that most ten vineyards are a lot of in yards each other a lot of Chateau d’If is

Fairly tough brutal wine but other vineyards Clos de Pape Reyes broadcaster is quite a number produce undoubtedly great one that on the same level is almost anything produced in France as some of my French friends were there bed donc Lomond thus the world there are so many ways to enjoy France whatever your
