Discover the grape variety: Villard
Simple whites or reds with a pale golden or deep ruby hue, a supple palate with moderate acidity and understated fruity aromas with discreet hybrid notes. Disease-resistant. Now marginal, they survive in a few heritage plots in France and bear witness to the post-phylloxera hybridisations of the first half of the 20th century. Synonym for the Villard Blanc and Villard Noir varieties, French hybrids obtained by Bertille Seyve in Bourgoin-Jallieu.
