When the average wine lover thinks of France, they think of the usual suspects - Champagne, Bordeaux, maybe the Rhône. No harm, no foul – these are great regions. When an Opimian Member thinks of France, they have a far broader reach and understanding. Great wines and spirits are made throughout the country, many available exclusively to Opimian.

CELLAR 307 — EDITORIAL

As you read through this Cellar, keep in mind that our Masters of Wine have tasted and selected each of these wines and, as an Opimian Member, you are one of the chosen few Canadians to know about them, let alone have an opportunity to enjoy them. Long-time Opimian champion and friend, Floris Lemstra, along with his family, have grown Vignobles Canet into a leading winery in Languedoc-Roussillon. Their wines are among Members' favourites every year. Coupled with Maison Le Breton (you'll remember them as BLB Vignobles), you have a wide selection of stellar wines from this region. We'd like to take a moment to congratulate Bruno and Morgane of Maison Le Breton for achieving certification as a 'B Corporation'.

This is a highly sought-after recognition of high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency around social and environmental change.

We continue to improve your choices from the Loire and Provence. Often living in the shadow of the better-known regions mentioned above, these appellations deliver superb quality and value. While Chenin Blanc from the Loire and rosé from Provence are the standard-bearers, your Masters of Wine have found standout bottles throughout the category.

If you haven't tried them already, it's time to consider the wines of Domaine Orenga de Gaffory from Corsica.

These organic wines, from indigenous varieties, benefit from the breezes from the Mediterranean Sea. So unique. So delicious.

Please take a moment to check out a new, trial feature on page 4. The 'Up to the Minute' newsletter is a way for us to give you news of the Club. While e-mail communication has become the preference of most, we know that some of you like to have it in black and white. Please let us know what you think.

Wishing you all the best, Michael & Greg

DOM A IN E C A N E T M A LB E C , I G P PAYS D'OC , 202 2 For the first time in the winery’s history, Château Canet winemaker Floris Lemstra has created a 100% Malbec from the tiny .78-hectare plot that he planted seven years ago. Up until the 2022 vintage, Floris has only used this fruit in his estate’s blends; however, over the years, he has noted the increasingly high calibre of the grapes as the vineyard continued to mature and knew it was destined to make something special. In honour of Opimian’s 50th-year celebrations, the entire small batch of Domaine Canet Malbec is reserved for Opimian Members.

Château Canet, located in the Minervois region of the Languedoc, has been owned by the Lemstra-Bake family – Floris and Victoria along with their children Oliver and Charlotte – since 2007. The vineyards, planted on limestone and clay soils, benefit from both the cool Atlantic breezes and the warm Mediterranean winds. The 115-hectare estate is also home to a state-of-the-art cellar, a three-hectare olive grove and a collection of nine guest gîtes. Sustainability and social responsibility are at the heart of the family’s core values. The property has been awarded HVE 3 status, the highest tier of the French Ministry of Agriculture’s sustainability system and has been following the sustainable winegrowing standards of Terra Vitis since 2003.

The deep ruby purple hue of Domaine Canet Malbec leads to a bountiful bouquet of blueberry, plum, mocha, blackberry, blackcurrant and violet. This generosity carries forth on the palate with flavours that echo the aromas. Ripe well-integrated tannins frame the core, providing the structure and balance to allow this wine to continue to evolve over the next five years. 2023-2028–lw

THE MASTERPIECE

The Sunshine Grapes of the LanguedocRoussillon

By Jacky Blisson MW

Stretching along the Mediterranean coast from the Spanish border to Provence, the LanguedocRoussillon is France’s wine powerhouse. Over one-third of all French wine hails from this warm, sunny area.

The region’s vineyards cover large swathes of land from the flat coastal plains to the foothills of the Massif Central and the Pyrenees. Given the wide diversity in topography, altitudes, and soil types here, the area has been carved out into specific, origin-protected vineyard zones.

The larger, regional designations are called IGPs (Indication géographique protégée). These zones make up almost three-quarters of Languedoc-Roussillon wine production; with the most notable being the vast IGP Pays d’Oc. IGP varietal wines are often excellent value, with plenty of easy-drinking appeal.

The Languedoc-Roussillon also has a multitude of smaller, more terroir-specific growing appellations, called AOPs (appellation d'origine protégée). Red wine blends based on Grenache, Syrah, Carignan, Mourvèdre, and Cinsault are most common here. These full-bodied wines often boast a pleasingly velvety texture and ripe, heady dark fruit flavours.

The dry Mediterranean climate of the Languedoc-Roussillon, buffeted by strong prevailing winds, keep vineyard pests and diseases to a minimum. This has facilitated the transition to more sustainable viticulture in the region.

Today, the Languedoc-Roussillon is the largest organic wine producer in France.

Numerous grape varieties thrive on the Languedoc-Roussillon’s patchwork of clay, limestone, schist, shale, granite, rocky, and sandstone soils. Let’s discover just a few favourites that you might come across in this cellar offering.

MAJOR RED WINE BLENDING GRAPES OF THE LANGUEDOC Grenache Grenache thrives in hot, dry climates producing generous, rounded wines with moderate acidity, fragrant red fruit flavours, and smooth tannins. With age, Grenache wines take on attractive notes of fig, prune, mocha, and tobacco. In red blends, Grenache provides body and fruit to counterbalance more tannic, firmly structured grapes like Syrah or Mourvèdre. *** Lledoner Pelut is a mutation of the Grenache Noir grape. It ripens earlier, giving wines with slightly lower alcohol, brighter acidity, and an attractive spicy, savoury character.

Syrah In warm climates, Syrah produces deeply coloured, full-bodied, and tannic wines.

The best examples have excellent ageing potential. Notes of black olive tapenade, ripe dark fruits, violets, chocolate, and spice are common in Languedoc Syrah.

Over time, savoury undertones and resinous notes can develop. Syrah’s floral perfume, spice, and tannic framework make it an ideal blending component.

Carignan The vigorous Carignan grape suffered a poor reputation for many years in the Languedoc as it was primarily used to produce mass quantities of insipid red wine. Now, older vines producing significantly lower yields give attractive peppery wines, with bright red and black fruit flavours, deep colour, and firm tannins.

Mourvèdre Mourvèdre is bold, tannic grape with black and blue berry aromas, wild herbal notes, and savoury nuances. Its vibrant acidity, full body, and grippy tannins make it a good blending component for structure. As a varietal wine, Mourvère can requires time in bottle to soften.

Cinsault The Cinsault grape is supple and light, with tangy fruit flavours of strawberry, red currant, and cranberries. Its smooth texture makes it an excellent candidate for rosé production, and a good grape to soften bold red wines.

GREAT WHITE GRAPES OF THE LANGUEDOC-ROUSSILLON Grenache Blanc and Gris These two white wine grapes are colour mutations of the Grenache variety. They are both drought resistant and can withstand heat, making them ideally suited to the Languedoc-Roussillon. Generally found in white wine blends, Grenache Blanc gives a soft, rounded wine with bright apple and delicate stone fruit hints. Grenache Gris is more voluptuous on the palate with headier apricot / peach flavours and spicy undertones.

Piquepoul Blanc This grape, also called Picpoul, or Picpoul de Pinet, is native to southern France. It is prized for its high, zippy acidity – a rarity in such a warm climate. Piquepoul wines are often citrussy, dry, and crisp. They make for a great summer apéritif.

Viognier Beloved for its fragrant perfume and satiny texture, Viognier is a common feature in Languedoc blends and varietal wines. Viognier wines can lack acidity when the grapes are over-ripened. However, when picked at optimal maturity, the variety produces bright, peachy, floral whites with considerable charm.

Rolle Often referred to by the name Vermentino, this grape can be crafted into a variety of white wine styles depending on how and where it is grown. Light, crisp, unoaked versions are most common. The best among them feature herbal undertones and refreshing hints of salinity.

The 2021 Pearl Morissette Coup de Cœur captures the essence of the Niagara region in a glass. It is a notably aromatic example of Chardonnay made from vines grown in the red clay soils of the 24-hectare Redfoot vineyard.

The property, located in the Lincoln Lakeshore viticultural area, is heavily influenced by the moderating effect of Lake Ontario. Here, the mild climate and the long growing season allow the grapes time to slowly ripen while they develop maximum flavour. Elegant from the first aromas through to the extended finish, this wine offers an expressive bouquet of honeydew melon, peach, apple and lemon scents that are reinforced on the palate. Elevage in 10% new oak demi-muid and 90% foudre, in addition to eight months spent on lees, adds depth and texture to the wine. Fresh acidity perfectly supports the fruit creating a seamless balance. This wine is immediately delightful but also has the capacity to evolve in cellar. The best part? Opimian Members now have exclusive access to this small-lot Canadian gem. It is not even available at the winery! 2023-2028– lw

FRANCE

LANGUEDOC-ROUSSILLON France’s Languedoc region extends inland from the Mediterranean coast reaching from the northeast border of Spain to the historic town of Nîmes. With an ideal climate for growing grapes, viticulture has been practiced here for 2,600 years. Hot dry summers transition into mild sunny winters while the persistent Tramontane wind cools and protects the vineyards. Soil composition is varied across this large region and includes clay, sandstone, marl, limestone and pudding stones. The Languedoc is known for its red wine blends; however, all styles of wine – white, rosé, sparkling and sweet – are also made here.

In Tuchan, rain showers never seem to last long, and as the locals say, “après la pluie, le beau temps.” This unique blend of Grenache and Carignan has a touch of Muscat. This is a particularly special wine as the Carignan is the last lot remaining from Katie’s late husband Jean Marc. With its light cherry hue and light tannins, Katie refers to this expressive, light-bodied wine as a red rosé or a rosé red. It offers youthful aromas of cherry, strawberry, plum and lavender. A thread of minerality weaves through its core of bright strawberry fruit, tailing off into a slightly herbal finish.

Domaine Peter Sichel is an exciting new addition to the Opimian Wine Club de Vin portfolio. The estate was established by Peter Sichel more than three decades ago in the Cucugnan Valley in the Aude department in southern France. Three generations and several name changes later, Peter’s grandson, Alexander Sichel, took over the reins at the winery. He made several important changes at that time including renaming the winery after his grandfather. He also evaluated the vineyards, keeping only the most suitable. With the property now half its former size, Alexander began its conversion to organic and biodynamic agriculture.

Q&A

Peter Sichel Alexander Sichel tells us about his family winery, the history of his estate and his wines.

How did you and your family get started in the wine industry? Have you always been a wine lover?

The family business was established seven generations ago, in 1883, in Bordeaux.

I grew up in Margaux (a village outside of Bordeaux) surrounded by vines and understood the importance of wine in our culture.

Wine represents a place in time, cultural traditions, values, and know-how that are passed on from generation to generation.

I inherited my family’s passion and wine quickly became a pillar of my life.

What attracted you to the Vallée de Cucugnan in the first place?

Two things attracted me to the valley of Cucugnan. My grandfather planted these vines in the late 80s. He passed away in 1998, but I still feel a strong connection with him today.

Continuing a project, the vision that he had, is the main source of motivation.

Furthermore, I believe with every cell in my body that these mountains have the potential to produce some of the greatest wines in the Mediterranean belt.

That is what’s special about the Valley. because of our mountainous climate, we can leave the grapes on the vines longer.

The longer you leave grapes on the vines before harvest, the more they absorb and reflect the place they come from, and eventually the more unique the wines will be.

How many people work at Domaine Peter Sichel? Which winemaking techniques do you use?

Five of us work in the vineyard or in the cellar on a daily basis. Most of our work is manual. No chemicals are used in the vineyard and we favour organic farming, as well as moon cycle influences and herbal teas to protect and help our vines.

In the cellar, we are very delicate, there’s no recipe, just a lot of attention and precision. the backbone of our reflection is to try to capture these mountains and put them in a bottle.

What is one of your favourite varietals to work with and why?

Grenache.

It is a fascinating grape. Depending on the choices you make, it can offer a very wide spectrum of different styles. Open a bottle of Montanha (Lot 4426 Montanha,

IGP Pays de Cucugnan, 2022) and you’ll be amazed to see how delicate, light and vibrant Grenache can be. You could almost mistake it for pinot noir.

If you open a bottle of Altura (Lot 4427 Altura 350, AOC Corbières, 2017) you’ll see how smooth Grenache can be after a few years.

Have a sip of Amassa (Lot 4430 Amassa, IGP de Cucugnan, 2019) and discover how incredibly profound, dense and complex this grape variety can be.

It’s too early to talk about, but the Grenache from the 2022 vintage that is currently ageing in the cellar smells like fresh roses…but more on that next year!

Do you have a tasting room that Opimian Members can visit, should they be in the region?

Absolutely. Please visit us!

You can talk directly to me via Instagram @domaine.PETERSICHEL. If I don’t reply instantly it’s most likely that I’m in the vines and don’t have signal on my phone.

We have beautiful landscapes but cell service is average!

With fewer than 150 cases produced, we are thrilled to be able to offer the celebrationworthy 2019 Amassa to Opimian Members.

This single vineyard wine was carefully crafted from 100% Grenache grown in clay and red marl 400 metres above sea level. In the winery, natural yeast fermentation took place before one year of aging in barrel and amphora. In the glass, a deep ruby-purple hue foreshadows the luscious dark fruit that weaves from the nose through the core to the lengthy finish.

PROVENCE

CHÂTEAU SAINTE-CROIX

Provence is considered France’s first wine region with viticulture dating back 2,600 years. For many of us, the mention of this sun-kissed appellation conjures up images of the pretty pale pink rosés it is famous for, but the region also produces a small amount of red and white wines. More than a dozen grape varieties, including Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault, thrive in Provence’s poor but well-drained soils, soaking up an average of 2,800 hours of sun annually.

The warm Mediterranean climate is moderated by the strong Mistral wind which blows from the north towards the sea.

Situated between Lac de Carcès and the Abbaye du Thoronet in the Var department of southeastern France.

Château Sainte-Croix was first established by Fernand Pélépol with the purchase of five hectares of vines in 1924. One century and four generations later, the vineyards have expanded to 50 hectares with siblings Florence and Stéphane Pélépol now at the helm.

DID YOU KNOW?

Pink Wine for Everyone

By Elizabeth Gabay MW

The world of French rosé is vast, with Provence the tip of the iceberg. Although often thought of as a singular category; rosé is a colour with multiple styles from all around France: dark or pale, easy-drinking or complex, dry or fortified styles, plus many regional varieties. Modern winemaking has raised the quality to ensure freshness and balance as well as greater longevity.

Before Provence-style was all the rage, the rosés from Anjou were popular, even being drunk by James Bond! These coolclimate wines have superb acidity and plentiful fruit thanks to their long, slow ripening. Rosé de Loire (dry) is made with varieties such as Gamay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc and local varieties. To balance the vibrant acidity and enhance the fruit, a small amount of residual sugar is traditional in Rosé d'Anjou (off-dry) based on local variety Grolleau and Cabernet d'Anjou (sweeter off-dry), showcasing the violets and red berries of Cabernet Franc or the darker fruit notes of Cabernet Sauvignon.

Hot, sunny and dry Provence produces elegantly bone-dry rosés with ripe fruit and soft acidity and is identified by its extreme paleness. Currently the on-trend rosé, its association with glamour and the Mediterranean lifestyle has contributed to its success over the past 20 years. These Grenache-based wines are blended with floral Cinsault, fresh Rolle (aka Vermentino), fruity Syrah, structural Mourvèdre or rich Tibouren in supporting roles. The key appellations are Côtes de Provence, fuller-bodied Bandol, fresher Luberon, Coteaux d'Aix and Coteaux Varois and regional IGP Méditerranée. Top wines show greater structure and complexity through time in barrel, concrete eggs or amphora.

France's largest rosé producer is, however, the LanguedocRoussillon consisting of a mosaic of rosé appellations, including regional Pays d'Oc IGP, weightier Côtes du Roussillon (near Spain) or Languedoc AOP, to highly localized, such as the historic rosé cru of Languedoc-Cabrieres, closer to the Rhône. The Languedoc shares Provence's Mediterranean varieties, often for a fraction of the price, with Pays d’Oc specializing in single varieties such as Petit Verdot, Syrah or Grenache, or atypical blends.

Outside of these main regions, France is home to an incredible wealth and diversity of rosés including Châteauneuf-du-Pape’s sister appellation, historic Tavel, with its darker pink, bolder structure and ageing potential; silky Pinot Noir rosés from Sancerre, Burgundian Marsannay and rare Rosé des Riceys in Champagne; Cabernet and Merlot-based pale rosés and darker clairet from Bordeaux; fortified ambré Rasteau and pale pink Muscat-de-Beaumes-de-Venise in the Rhône and, of course, sparkling pinks from Champagne and regional Crémants.

There really is a rosé for everyone.

ELIZABETH GABAY has been specializing in the wines of southern France since the mid-1980s and has lived in the region since 2002. A Master of Wine since 1998, she was joined by her son Ben Bernheim in 2020, expanding the business of working with producers, education and writing about the wines. They have published a number of books on rosé including "Rosé, understanding the pink wine revolution" (2018) and "The Rosés of Southern France" (2022).

CORSICA

Domaine Orenga de Gaffory Corsica is a French island located in the Mediterranean Sea, due north of Sardinia. Patrimonio, situated at the northern end of the island, was its first official appellation and has been making wine for more than 1,100 years. Patrimonio’s mild, temperate climate is influenced by breezes from the nearby Gulf of Saint Florent.

In 1967, Domaine Orenga de Gaffory was established by the Orenga de Gaffory family in Patrimonio. The winery specializes in indigenous varieties such as Vermentinu for white wine and Niellucciu for red.

They also make a regional specialty, the sweet, fortified Muscat du Cap Corse from Muscat Petits Grains.

The wines of Domaine Orenga de Gaffory have been produced organically since 2019.

CELLAR 307 — PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND

Armagnac is more prestigious than one might think. It was one of the very first regions granted Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (AOC) status in 1936 and, with a 700-year history, is actually the oldest recorded brandy in the world.

Production is mostly shared between small, artisan distillers in contrast to Cognac’s more corporate canon of producers.

Perhaps most reassuring is the fact that the French vouch for it – half of production never leaves Gallic shores.

A Maison of impressive heritage, Ryst-Dupeyron have been operating for 120 years, with cellars of similar vintage.

Jacques-François Ryst keeps the family name alive; indeed, this is still very much a family business. The substantial paradis cellar guards Armagnacs over half a century in age.

Armagnac

A pale amber hue and initial esters of pear drop and wood varnish betray a luxurious nose of stewed apricots, dried fig, gingerbread and toffee. The palate is driven by a rich mêlée of peach, peach blossom, various dried fruits, marmalade and toffee. A sustained, fruit-filled finish shows impeccable balance. This is a class act.– mp

Armagnac

A powerful and complex nose with an appealing prickle of pear drop which highlights the robust character shaped by apricot, sultana, prune and dried flowers. This is a gorgeous glass of artisanal Armagnac, brooding with toffee and prune overlaid with exotic spice, sandalwood, clove, orange blossom and gingerbread. It is unschooled and unrepentantly sauvage but capped by a well-judged finish.–mp

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A CONNOISSEUR TO FALL IN LOVE!

A deep amber hue and complex, aromatic and pleasantly forward nose of banana, mango, pear drop, sultana and allspice.

The woody notes are there on the palate, but they are driven by sultana, lemon, gingerbread, allspice, pear and mango, filling the mouth in jovial fashion. The finish is a trilogy of ripe fruit, feinty notes and a little oak.–mp

Cognac is a type of grape brandy produced from delimited vineyards in the Charente department of southwestern France. The process requires a double distillation in copper pot stills, followed by a minimum of two years’ ageing in French oak barrels.

Ugni Blanc, Colombard

Ugni Blanc, Colombard

VS is a term reserved for younger Cognac, aged for at least two years before release. These youthful Cognacs are more floral and fruit driven. The “Elisabeth” VS is no exception with its notes of tree fruit, almonds and white blossoms. The palate is smooth and heady with well-balanced oaked nuances of vanilla, sandalwood and spice.– jb

Ugni Blanc, Colombard

The term VSOP stands for “Very Special Old Pale.” It can only be used for Cognac which has been aged at least four years before bottling. This is a bold style of Cognac with its exotic spice, dried fruit and musky aromas. The palate is highly nuanced with mingled smoky, spiced, and fruity flavours as well as a fiery finish.–jb

The XO classification in Cognac stands for “Extra Old.” The brandy must be aged for at least six years to warrant this mention. Terms like Napoleon or Old Reserve on labels are synonymous with XO. This is a highly complex and powerfully structured Cognac, with layer upon layer of aged nutty, caramel, spiced, woody flavours. Satin-like in texture with a pleasantly warming finish.–jb
