Simple, light and fruity reds with a pale ruby colour, melted tannins and a light palate with moderate acidity, showing undemonstrative aromas of red fruits. A discreet rustic profile. Almost disappeared from commercial cultivation, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it bears witness to pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity and is among the heritage varieties under study. Rare French black variety, once grown in the South-West.
