Discover the grape variety: Chichaud
It is most certainly from the Ardèche, and is not found anywhere else. It has long been confused with the cinsaut called boudalès in this region, which explains why it has the synonym tsintsao. It is said to be related to the white humagne. Today, Chichaud is on the verge of extinction, although it is registered in the Official Catalogue of wine grape varieties, list A1.

The main Vineyard area covers the southeast-facing slopes of the dramatic Rhône river valley as the glacial waters run southwest between Leuk (Loeche in French) and Fully. The river changes direction at Martigny and then runs northwest to exit the valley and empty into Lac Léman (Lake Geneva). Vineyard area here comes to around 4,800 hectares (11,800 acres) and is generally located on (often steep) slopes and terraces between the flat, fertile, Heavy soils at the bottom of the valley - often given over to fruit production, industry and urban development - and the bare rock of the mountainside that towers above.
