Table grape with medium bunches and golden berries with thin skin and muscat-flavoured flesh, with a sweet aromatic flavour (rose, fresh grapes). Early ripening.

Aromatic white variety sometimes listed as a synonym of Hungarian Irsai Oliver.

The wine region of Landes
IGP of the South-West (Landes, ~19,000 hl/year, humid oceanic climate, sandy-acidic to clay-limestone soils): signature Colombard, Ugni Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Gros Manseng as white kings (60%) — dry, fresh, fruity and well-balanced profile with floral and citrus notes. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Tannat in powerful structured reds (25%). Charming and fleshy roses (15%). Warm sunny late seasons favourable to intense aromatic over-ripening.
The wine region of Comté Tolosan
IGP covering all of southwest France across 12 departments, a broad and accessible palette. On the Garonne right bank, supple reds dominate: signature Merlot with signature notes of plum, ripe cherry, cocoa and a herbaceous touch, round tannins. Firm Cabernet, spicy Syrah, tannic local Tannat. Left bank for whites: vivid Colombard and Gros Manseng (citrus, grapefruit, exotic fruits), aromatic Sauvignon.
The word of the wine: Tries (harvest by)
Harvesting in several successive passages to harvest at their optimal concentration the grapes affected by noble rot. They allow the production of great sweet wines.
