Southwest Wines: The Essentials

The Southwest is home to a wide variety of vineyards, from Bergerac to the Pyrenees. It grows grape varieties that are rare elsewhere: Malbec in Cahors, Tannat in Madiran, Petit and Gros Manseng in Jurançon, Négrette in Fronton, and Colombard in Gascony, the land of Armagnac.

What grape varieties are grown in the Southwest?

Malbec (Côt), Tannat, Fer Servadou, Négrette, Duras, and Cabernet for red wines; Petit and Gros Manseng, Colombard, Mauzac, Len de l'El, and Sauvignon for white wines.

What dishes to serve with a Southwest wine?

Cahors or Madiran reds pair well with confit, duck breast, cassoulet, and garbure; a sweet Jurançon with foie gras and fruit desserts.
