Discover the grape variety: Baco
Lively whites with pronounced acidity, a pale golden robe, a light, nervous palate, and discrete aromas of citrus (lemon) and slightly foxy hybrid notes. Disease-resistant. Mainly used for distillation into Armagnac; represents a significant share of the Landes vineyards and defines the aromatic identity of Gascon eaux-de-vie (characteristic rancio notes). French white hybrid obtained in 1898 by François Baco (folle blanche × noah).
