Discover the grape variety: Villard blanc
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).
