Discover the grape variety: Lignan blanc
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity, and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. A discreet rustic profile. Almost absent from commercial cultivation, preserved in INRAE variety collections, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the French vineyard. A rare French white heritage grape.
