Discover the grape variety: Ferradou
Light, simple fruity reds with a pale ruby colour, soft tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, undemonstrative red fruit aromas. Rustic, discreet profile. Almost extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, testament to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West and studied for its genetic interest. Rare French black variety, once grown in the South-West.
