Simple and fruity whites with a pale golden colour, a supple palate with moderate acidity and understated aromas of white fruits and hybrid notes. Productive and disease resistant. Grown in negligible quantities in France and Canada (Quebec) for continental-climate vineyards, bearing witness to the history of post-phylloxera French hybridization. Family of French hybrid varieties obtained by Jean-François Ravat in the early 20th century.
