Discover the grape variety: Chichaud

Simple and fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity, showing understated aromas of citrus, white flowers and southern herbaceous notes. Rustic, airy profile. Preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the Southwest and is among the heritage varieties being studied. Rare French white grape formerly grown in the Southwest, now nearly extinct.
