Discover the grape variety: Perle de Csaba
It is thought to have originated in Hungary, as Adolf Stark, a winegrower in Bekescsaba (Hungary), created it in 1904. According to genetic analyses, it is the result of a cross between the Madeleine angevine and the Muscat fleur d'oranger. The Csaba pearl has been used to obtain a few crosses (the red Csaba pearl is an example), the aim always being to try to find new varieties with early maturity. Today, it is only found in ornamental gardens, interesting only for its great earliness. Its many defects mean that it is almost on the verge of extinction, although it is included in the official catalogue of vine varieties on the A1 list.

The wine region of Vin de France
Vin de France is the most basic level of quality for wines from France. These are generally uncomplicated everyday drinks - most often blends, but perhaps also Varietal wines based on a well-known Grape variety such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc. Wines from France are those that do not meet the criteria stipulated by the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) or Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) laws (see information on French wine labels). This may be because the vineyards are outside the delimited production areas or because the grape varieties or winemaking techniques used do not conform to the rules of the local appellations.
The word of the wine: Extra-dry
Champagne with between 12 and 20 grams of sugar (see dosage liqueur).
