Light, simple fruity reds with a lightly coloured light ruby robe, silky tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, showing undemonstrative aromas of red fruits. Discreet southern rustic profile. Almost extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its heritage value, bearing witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the southern vineyard. Rare French black grape, formerly grown in the south.
