Discover the grape variety: Dauphine
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Preserved in some ampelographic collections, one of the ancient heritage varieties whose commercial diffusion has almost disappeared, studied for its genetic and historical interest. Rare, little-documented white grape grown in negligible quantities.
