Wines made from Négrette grapes of Wallonie
Discover the best wines made with Négrette as a single variety or as a blend of Wallonie.
Supple, perfumed reds with a deep ruby robe, smooth tannins and a round palate, with intense, characteristic aromas of violet, red fruit (raspberry, blackcurrant), liquorice, soft spice and peppery notes. Gourmand finish; best young or short ageing. The near-exclusive star of Fronton AOC north of Toulouse (minimum 50% in blends), also made as expressive rosés. Autochthonous South-West French variety, possibly brought from Cyprus by the Knights Hospitaller.
Southern Belgian vineyard (~36% of national production), clay-limestone and schist soils, cool temperate climate. Signature Chardonnay as white king (32% of Belgian vineyard): taut and precise with notes of citrus, green apple, white flowers and chalky touch — base of fresh sparklers and chiseled whites on the rise. Aerial Pinot Noir (cherry, raspberry, undergrowth), round Pinot Meunier. Crémant de Wallonie as flagship specialty.
