Simple and fruity whites with a pale golden colour, a supple palate with moderate acidity and understated aromas of white fruits and hybrid notes. Productive and disease resistant. Grown in negligible quantities in France and Canada (Quebec) for continental-climate vineyards, bearing witness to the history of post-phylloxera French hybridization. Family of French hybrid varieties obtained by Jean-François Ravat in the early 20th century.

The word of the wine: Water stress
Lack of water. Water stress blocks the vegetative cycle of the vine, which uses all available resources to maintain the integrity of the plant, thus blocking the ripening process of the grapes.
