Discover the grape variety: Calitor blanc
Simple, light whites for drinking young with a pale golden colour, an airy palate with low acidity, and discreet aromas of white flowers, white-fleshed fruits and neutral notes. Productive and rustic, accessible easy-drinking profile. Almost extinct today, surviving in a few conservatory vineyards in Provence and Languedoc for its heritage value. White-berried mutation of Calitor noir, an ancient variety from south-eastern France and the Mediterranean rim.
