Discover the grape variety: Négret Canourgue
Light, simply fruity reds with a pale ruby colour, soft tannins and a light palate with moderate acidity, featuring understated aromas of red fruits. Discreet rustic profile. Nearly extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its heritage value; it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West and is among the patrimonial varieties under study. Rare French black variety, once grown in the South-West.
