Terroir

• A Gascon country recipe dating from the 16th century: grape juice is muted with young eau-de-vie and consumed at post-harvest meals. (via Wikipedia · CC BY-SA 4.0)

• White: aromas of flowers and white fruits; rosé: aromas of red fruits — a young, fresh, fruity wine, with no aromas of development.
• Optimal serving temperature: 6 °C, as an apéritif, chilled and without ice. (via Wikipedia · CC BY-SA 4.0)

• Consistent water supply — rainfall to the west, moisture-retaining soils to the east — preserves the freshness and acidity of the musts, balancing the heat of the eau-de-vie.
