Light, fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, smooth tannins and a supple palate, with simple aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry), soft spices and herbal notes. Airy profile for early drinking. Now rare, preserved in INRAE varietal collections as a witness to pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity in Aquitaine. Indigenous French black variety from the South-West, once grown in Aquitaine, studied for its genetic interest.
