Discover the grape variety: Chichaud
It is most certainly from the Ardèche, and is not found anywhere else. It has long been confused with the cinsaut called boudalès in this region, which explains why it has the synonym tsintsao. It is said to be related to the white humagne. Today, Chichaud is on the verge of extinction, although it is registered in the Official Catalogue of wine grape varieties, list A1.
