Deeply coloured, structured reds with a dense purple robe, smooth tannins and a round palate, with aromas of blackberry, blackcurrant, plum, garrigue, spice and balsamic notes. Good short-to-medium ageing. Vinified in blends and as single varietal in IGP Pays d'Oc and Méditerranée (Languedoc-Roussillon, Provence), also adopted in Morocco, Tunisia, Israel and Spain. A Grenache × Malbec cross created in 1958 by Paul Truel in Montpellier (INRA).
IGP in the Pyrenean foothills (Aude, oceanic-Mediterranean climate, altitude, limestone soils): Chardonnay signature white — elegant and aromatic with notes of fresh fruit, spices and expressive minerality marked by limestone, fresh balance highlighting fruity character and length. Chenin, Pinot Blanc, Sauvignon and Viognier complement. Altitude and oceanic influence temper Mediterranean climate, slow ripening, aromatic concentration.
