Discover the grape variety: Aubin blanc
A very old grape variety that was once grown in Lorraine, but is now almost no longer multiplied, although it is registered in the Official Catalogue of Wine Grape Varieties, list A1. According to Jean-Michel Boursiquot, it is the result of a natural intraspecific crossing between the white Gouais and the Savagnin. Aubin Blanc should not be confused with Aubin Vert, which is the result of an intraspecific cross between Gouais Blanc and Pinot Noir.
