Discover the grape variety: Jacquez
A natural French-American ternary hybrid that most certainly comes from an interspecific crossing between an unknown Vinifera with Vitis Aestivalis and Vitis Cinerea. The Jacquez was at the time the most multiplied in the World, present since always in the Portuguese island of Madeira. For a long time used as a direct producer, it was even used as a rootstock in the south of France, in the United States, in Mexico and in South Africa: some vines grafted on Jacquez still exist today. In France, it is one of the six hybrids prohibited since 1935 (included in European regulations): Clinton, Herbemont, Isabelle, Jacquez, Noah and Othello.

The wine region of Rhone Valley
The Rhone Valley is a key wine-producing region in Southeastern France. It follows the North-south course of the Rhône for nearly 240 km, from Lyon to the Rhône delta (Bouches-du-Rhône), near the Mediterranean coast. The Length of the valley means that Rhône wines are the product of a wide variety of soil types and mesoclimates. The viticultural areas of the region cover such a distance that there is a widely accepted division between its northern and southern parts.
