Discover the grape variety: Rayon d'or
Simple, lively dry whites with a pale golden colour, a supple palate and preserved acidity showing unassertive citrus, white flower and herbaceous aromas typical of hybrid varieties. A rustic disease-resistant profile. Grown mainly in the United States (Missouri, Pennsylvania) and Canada for continental-climate vineyards, a legacy of post-phylloxera hybridisation.
