Discover the grape variety: Ondenc
Ondenc is a white grape variety from the southwest of France, particularly present in the vineyards of Bergerac, Duras, Montravel and Gaillac, and is very sensitive to disease, but vigorous and fertile. Pruned short, this variety resists very well to the autan wind. ondenc gives dry or sweet white wines of a beautiful finesse. To gain in complexity, alcohol content and aromatic expression, it is often blended with other white grape varieties. When distilled, it is also the source of high quality perfumed eaux de vie. It is often used in the composition of AOC Côtes-de-Bergerac, Bordeaux, Côtes-de-Duras, Gaillac, etc. Ondenc accounts for less than 10 hectares in France, but is very present in Australia.
