Discover the grape variety: Calitor
Calitor is a black grape variety of Provençal origin that is not widely grown in France. It is only cultivated on a little more than a hundred hectares in total. The main characteristic of this variety is its bent stalk. Its adult leaves have 5 lobes and angular teeth. The leaf blade is both pubescent and downy. The young leaves have a pinkish tinge, especially in autumn. They are also downy. The tip of the calitor branch is cottony. Calitor is a recommended grape variety in the departments of Vaucluse and Var and is authorized in others such as Gard, Drôme and Ardèche. It has two variants, namely the grey calitor and the white calitor. The calitor is matured only 35 days after the chasselas but it is very productive. It appreciates hot and dry soils. This variety is resistant to oidium, but it remains sensitive to grey rot and mildew. Calitor produces a light, low-alcohol wine with little colour.

The word of the wine: Yeast
Micro-organisms at the base of all fermentative processes. A wide variety of yeasts live and thrive naturally in the vineyard, provided that treatments do not destroy them. Unfortunately, their replacement by laboratory-selected yeasts is often the order of the day and contributes to the standardization of the wine. Yeasts are indeed involved in the development of certain aromas.
