Discover the grape variety: Perdéa
Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour, a supple palate with moderate acidity, and understated aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Nearly extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its heritage value, it reflects the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West. A rare French white grape variety once cultivated in the South-West.
