Genetically the parent (with Pinot Noir) of many great varieties: Chardonnay, Aligoté, Gamay, Melon de Bourgogne, Riesling, etc. Today almost extinct, preserved for its exceptional genetic value in European variety collections. Historic white variety of Central Europe, ubiquitous in the Middle Ages.

The wine region of Alentejano
Star of southern Portugal's great reds, sunny and opulent wines. Typical blends: round fruity Aragonez (Tempranillo), spicy Trincadeira, Touriga Nacional (black fruits, violet), deep teinturier Alicante Bouschet, juicy Castelão. Fleshy reds with notes of plum, black cherry, cocoa and sweet spices, melted tannins. Ample fresh Antão Vaz and Arinto whites.
The word of the wine: Vaccaresis
Black grape variety, one of the 13 of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, which can be used in a blend in this appellation and other neighbouring AOCs (Côtes-du-Rhône, Gigondas...). It produces a floral, elegant and fresh wine, which balances the warmth of the Grenache. It is rare.
