“Real structure to this. Though very, very different from any other wine I can think of. Citrus-peel flavours and some real grip on the palate (though not astringency). I can see how this is the jewel in the Plaimont crown; I can't quite see how to convince people to pay the price for something so incomparable.”
France is without doubt the world’s supreme wine-producing country, unmatched for the finesse, style and sheer diversity of its wines. France’s revered wine regions form a roll of honour beyond compare. The enduring appeal of France’s classic wine styles turns on the peculiarly French – and often controversial – concept of terroir, the belief in wine with a ‘sense of place’, with flavours and textures.
