A little history...

The history of Bergerac Rose merges with that of Bergerac Red.
Bergerac Rosés are produced throughout the Bergerac appellation area and have also been granted AOC status by decree of 1936.

Terroir

The Bergerac Rosé appellation is located in the south of the Dordogne department, more particularly the district of Bergerac. It is possible to produce wines in the Bergerac Rosé appellation in more than 90 municipalities surrounding the town of Bergerac. The nature of the soils reflects the extent of the vineyard: from lacustrine limestones, to sands through clays to gravels. The multiplicity of configurations linked to reliefs, waterways and exposures creates a large number of local climates and allows each winegrower to differentiate himself.
