Discover the grape variety: Gouais

It is certainly one of the oldest known grape varieties as it is already reported in the Middle Ages as producing a poor quality wine. Some claim that it has its first origins in eastern France and others in Croatia. It would then have been introduced into France by the Romans, nearly 2,000 years ago. Published genetic analyses have revealed that it is related to several grape varieties, including Saint Côme, Raffiat de Moncade, Muscadelle, Jurançon Blanc, Grease, Colombard, and Mademoiselle Blanche. For more information, click here. Today, the Gouais has practically disappeared from the vineyard, it is still cultivated somewhat in the upper Swiss Valais under the name of Gwäss or Gwaëss.
