Discover the grape variety: Raisaine
Most certainly Ardéchoise, formerly cultivated in the region of Privas, Aubenas, Joyeuse and Largentière. It is the result of a natural intra-specific crossing between the black ribier and the red grec. Today, Raisaine is totally absent from the vineyards and is therefore in danger of disappearing, although it is listed in the Official Catalogue of Wine Grapes, list A.

The wine region of Bordeaux
Bordeaux, in southwestern France, is one of the most famous, prestigious and prolific wine regions in the world. The majority of Bordeaux wines (nearly 90% of the production Volume) are the Dry, medium and Full-bodied red Bordeaux blends for which it is famous. The finest (and most expensive) are the wines of the great châteaux of Haut-Médoc and the right bank appellations of Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. The former focuses (at the highest level) on Cabernet Sauvignon, the latter on Merlot.
The word of the wine: Density per hectare
Number of vines per hectare. For the same yield, a vine planted with 3,000 vines per hectare bears many more bunches (per vine) than a vine planted with 10,000. The grapes will therefore be less rich in sugar and polyphenols (tannins, aromas...).
