Deeply coloured and structured reds with a deep ruby robe, firm to powerful tannins and a dense palate, with signature aromas of black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant), plum, spices and balsamic notes. Fine ageing potential as a tannic red. Grown mainly in the South-West for IGPs, it offers excellent potential for red wines with ageing ability. French black grape obtained in 1956 by crossing Tannat × Cabernet Sauvignon, like Arinarnoa.

France, home of Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne, is arguably the world's largest wine-producing country. For centuries, it has produced more wine - and apparently better quality - than any other country. Wine is embedded in French culture at almost every level of society; it is the drink of the elite and the common people, and a key symbol of Roman Catholicism, the majority religion in France. However, the lasting appeal of French wine is not necessarily its Volume or prestige, but rather the variety of styles available.
