Discover the grape variety: Jacquez

A natural French-American ternary hybrid that most certainly comes from an interspecific crossing between an unknown Vinifera with Vitis Aestivalis and Vitis Cinerea. The Jacquez was at the time the most multiplied in the World, present since always in the Portuguese island of Madeira. For a long time used as a direct producer, it was even used as a rootstock in the south of France, in the United States, in Mexico and in South Africa: some vines grafted on Jacquez still exist today. In France, it is one of the six hybrids prohibited since 1935 (included in European regulations): Clinton, Herbemont, Isabelle, Jacquez, Noah and Othello.

For over 2500 years, Sicily (Sicilia in Italian) has been an important centre of Mediterranean viticulture, although the reputation and style of its wines have changed considerably over time.
