Supple and fruity reds with a sustained ruby colour, silky tannins and an airy palate with preserved acidity, featuring aromas of red fruits (raspberry, pomegranate), sweet spices and peppery notes. Discreet southern profile. Preserved for its heritage value, it survives in a few heritage plots in the Tarn and at Fronton, and is among the ancient South-West grape varieties under study. French autochthonous black grape from the South-West.
