Simple whites and reds with the characteristic foxy taste of Vitis labrusca (wild strawberry, wild raspberry), a supple palate with moderate acidity, and a rustic profile marked by labruscoid notes. In France, one of the six prohibited hybrids since 1935 (along with Clinton, Herbemont, Jacquez, Noah, Othello). Still found in heritage trellises and in some countries (Brazil, Georgia). American hybrid derived from Vitis labrusca, imported to Europe in the 19th century.
