More informations about the variety Vidal blanc
Aromatic, structured whites with firm acidity preserved at full ripeness, featuring aromas of citrus, pineapple, mango, apricot, honey and muscat notes. Absolute star of Canadian Icewines (Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia) where thick-skinned berries survive on the vine through frost, yielding rich liquoreux with exotic fruit and honey aromas. Also made as dry and semi-sweet whites in the northeastern United States. French hybrid created in 1930 by Jean-Louis Vidal (Ugni Blanc × Rayon d'Or).

Quality renaissance of English wine, signature in traditional-method sparklers. On chalk soils identical to Champagne's (South-East), fine, taut bubbles with signature notes of green apple, lemon, white flowers, brioche and chalk, the vivid acidity of a cool climate. Based on Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Meunier. Still wines a minority: aromatic Bacchus (elderflower, cut grass — the English identity), fresh Pinot Noir.
