Poitou-Charentes Wine

Thanks to a favourable climate which allows vineyards to thrive, the Poitou-Charentes region of France can boast having high-quality vineyards.

The Vins des deux Sèvres French wines are produced from Chenin Blanc or Pineau de Loire (white wines), Cabernet franc, Cabernet-Sauvignon, Pineau d’Aunis (Rosé and Red wines).
The Vins du Thouarsais wines produce more white wines from Chenin Blanc than other wines even if you can find some red wines like cabernet and Gamay.
Vins Saumur de la Vienne are issued from few varietals like Chenin blanc for the white wine and Cabernet Franc as well as Cabernet Sauvignon for the red and Rosé wines.

These wines are really appreciated for their being light-bodied. Particularly fresh, you will savour their vivacity when consumed with any red meats or fishes.
