Fresh, fruity dry whites with a pale golden colour, supple palate and lively acidity, showing signature aromas of citrus (lemon), green apple, white flowers and herbaceous notes reminiscent of sauvignon. Thirst-quenching profile, best drunk young. Grown on small plots in south-west France (Béarn, Tursan), it contributes to local blends alongside gros manseng and baroque. French white variety obtained in 1956 (raffiat de Moncade × sauvignon).
