Discover the grape variety: Lercat

Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe and a supple palate with moderate acidity, with understated aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Almost extinct, preserved in INRAE variety collections; bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West and is studied as a heritage variety for its genetic interest. Rare French white variety, once grown in the South-West.
