Simple and lively dry whites with a pale golden colour, supple palate and preserved acidity, with understated aromas of white flowers, citrus (lemon) and hybrid notes. A productive, disease-resistant profile to drink young. Now marginal in France, it survives in a few heritage plots and varietal collections among the preserved Seyve-Villard hybrids. A French white hybrid obtained by Bertille Seyve in Bourgoin-Jallieu (Seyve-Villard 12-375).

The wine region of British Columbia
Canada's west-coast benchmark, wine heartland in the Okanagan Valley. Semi-desert continental climate, marked temperature swings: signature Pinot Gris (pear, honey, spice, round palate), fresh, fine Pinot Noir (cherry, undergrowth), precise Chardonnay and taut Riesling in the north. Hot south for dense Cabernet Sauvignon, round Merlot and peppery Syrah. Also exceptional Icewine (Vidal, Riesling).
The word of the wine: Old vines
There are no specific regulations governing the term "vieilles vignes". After 20 to 25 years, the yields stabilize and tend to decrease, the vines are deeply rooted, and the grapes that come from them give richer, more concentrated, more sappy wines, expressing with more nuance the characteristics of their terroir. It is possible to find plots of vines that claim to be a century old.
