Discover the grape variety: Guillemot
Most certainly from Béarn. It should not be confused with the blancard - or palougue - because they both have the same synonym coer de baco. The Guillemot is practically no longer present in the vineyard and is therefore on the verge of extinction. According to published genetic analyses, it is the result of a natural cross between the Manseng Noir and the Verjuice. For more information on other relatives, click here !
