Discover the grape variety: Dameron

Simple, rustic reds with a clear ruby colour, soft tannins and an airy palate, showing discreet aromas of red fruits and herbal notes. Formerly destined mainly for distillation into eau-de-vie. Now almost extinct, preserved in INRAE ampelographic collections, a witness to the former diversity of the Charentes vineyard before phylloxera. Old black variety from the Charentes, ancestor of the Cognac vineyard.
