Light and simply fruity reds with a pale ruby colour, silky tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, featuring undemonstrative red fruit aromas. Discreet rustic profile. Almost extinct in commercial cultivation, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it bears witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West and is among the heritage grape varieties under study. Rare French black grape, once grown in the South-West.

The word of the wine: White Grenache
White grape variety cultivated mainly in Spain and a little in the south of France (southern Rhône valley, Languedoc-Roussillon). It is the white variety of Grenache noir. It is used in the blending of several white wines (dry wines or natural sweet wines) to which it gives richness, fatness and floral notes.
