Discover the grape variety: Ravat noir
Deeply coloured, simple fruity reds with a sustained purple colour, soft tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, showing aromas of black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry) and discreet herbal notes. Productive and disease resistant. Grown in small quantities in France and Canada (Quebec) for rigorous continental viticultural climates. French black hybrid obtained by Jean-François Ravat in the early 20th century, a witness to French post-phylloxera hybridisation.

The word of the wine: INAO glass
Glass adapted to wine tasting, created in the 1970s by the Institut national des appellations d'origine. At the time, it had the advantage of offering a standardised tool to all tasters. It is characterized by a wide base that allows for good ventilation and a narrow mouth (opening of the glass) to concentrate the aromas. Many high-performance glasses have been created based on this model.
