Discover the grape variety: Blancard
Simple dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity and understated aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Now almost extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West vineyard and belongs to the heritage grape varieties being studied. Rare French white grape, once cultivated in the South-West.
