Counoise is a black grape variety of Spanish origin. It is widely cultivated in the southern part of France.

They are thick and large. Its bunches are medium-sized but its berries are large. It is advisable to prune it short so that it is productive. It matures in the second half of the year, but production depends on the vintage. This grape variety appreciates hillside terroirs, which are stony and warm.
