Poitou-Charentes Wine

Thanks to a favourable climate which allows vineyards to thrive, the Poitou-Charentes region can boast having high-quality vineyards. However the production of local wine is not the main activity of this area which is more used to produce liqueur like Cognac which is the local speciality.

Fine wines from Poitou-Charentes are:

• Vins de Pays Charentais
• Vins des Deux Sèvres
• Vins Saumur de la Vienne
• Vins de Haut Poitou
• Vins du Thouarsais

• 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.

But if you come over this sunny French region and ask for traditional produce, then you will be able to sip the amazing Pineau des Charentes as well as the Cognac and Armagnac wines, some of the best jewels of Poitou Charentes.
