Simple, light and fruity reds with a lightly coloured clear ruby hue, soft tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, showing understated aromas of red fruits. Discreet, rustic southern profile. Almost disappeared, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its heritage value, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the southern vineyard and is among the heritage varieties being studied. Rare French black variety, formerly grown in the south-east.
