Simple, fresh dry gris whites with a pale rose-copper robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity, and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. A discreet rustic profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections, Fel is an ancient heritage variety whose commercial cultivation has almost vanished; it is studied for its genetic interest. A rare, poorly documented gris grape grown in negligible quantities.
