Discover the grape variety: Mondeuse noire

Cultivated for a very long time in Savoie, it is not the black form of mondeuse blanche and Mondeuse grise is a natural mutation of mondeuse noire.

Savoie is a wine region in eastern France, in the mountainous areas just South of Lake Geneva and on the border with Switzerland.
