Supple wines are highly appreciated for their light and easy character. Whether they are red, white, or rosé, these wines are indeed distinguished by their finesse and their delicate aromatic profile. These are particularly appreciated for accompanying light meals or simply for being enjoyed for the pleasure of drinking an accessible wine, especially as an aperitif.
Supple red wines have little tannin. Thus, Burgundy and its famous grape variety Pinot Noir often serve as the absolute reference for this type of wine. The cuvées produced from this variety are indeed renowned for their delicacy, their fruity aromas, as well as their delicate texture. It should be noted, however, that depending on the appellation and the winemaker's vinification method, Pinot Noir can also create powerful and deep wines, although they never match the tannic intensity of certain Bordeaux.
Moreover, certain red wines from the Loire made from Pinot Noir but also from Cabernet Franc are also appreciated for their fresh and easy-drinking character, just like some reds from Alsace or the delicious Gamays from Beaujolais.
On the white wine side, the Loire Valley is renowned for its supple and refreshing whites, particularly in the Muscadet appellation. Some Chenin from Anjou-Saumur or fine Sauvignon from Sancerre and its surroundings also fall into this category.
Finally, most rosé wines products are also focused on freshness, similar to almost all those from AOC Côtes-de-Provence, generally expressing subtle notes of citrus and red fruits as well as a certain minerality.
