A cross of Cabernet Franc × Magdeleine Noire, France's most planted red variety.

Opulent Chardonnay whites, lively Sauvignon, floral, apricoty Viognier.
The word of the wine: Acescence
An alteration in wine also known as pitting (hence the expression piqué wine), due to the presence of acetic acid and ethyl acetate, and characterized by a vinegar-like odor.
