Aromatic, fresh dry whites with a pale hue, a supple palate and preserved acidity, with delicate notes of light muscat, citrus, white flowers, apple and florals. Thirst-quenching, drink young. Very early-ripening variety suited to northern climates: a quiet star of modern English wines, also grown in the Pacific Northwest and Anjou. Hybrid created in 1857 by Moreau-Robert in Anjou (madeleine royale × précoce de Malingre).
