AOC Bergerac

The Bergerac AOC is located in the southwest of the Dordogne and includes the appellations Côtes-du-Bergerac as well as Bergerac Sec. The entire area covers 7,150 hectares of vineyards growing on clay-limestone and sandy soils. The climate here is oceanic, continuing the influence of neighboring Bordeaux. The grape varieties highlighted are Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon as well as Malbec for reds, while Sauvignon, Sémillon and Muscadelle are permitted in Côtes-du-Bergerac Blanc.The wines are very diverse: while most are meant to be enjoyed in their relative youth, low yields, exceptional terroir, and barrel aging can allow certain cuvées to offer  deep and intense aromatics, with excellent value for money, all while boasting impressive aging potential.
