François Baco (1865-1947) and Vincent Malègue (1830-1915) also used it as a progenitor. - Synonymy: red bird, tank, Terray hybrid, malafosse, oazo rukh, sakhotin (for all the grape variety synonyms, click here!). - Description: small to medium-sized bunches, cylindrical-conical, winged, more or less compact, sometimes with small green berries, medium-sized stalks remaining green when ripe; small, spherical berries, beautiful bluish-black skin, very pruinose, pulpy, with coloured juice.

The wine region of Maury

Maury is a town in the northern Roussillon region of southern France. Its name is best known as an appellation for the natural Sweet wines produced around the town, although in 2011 the separate AOC Maury Sec came into effect for Dry red wines, due to the recognition that a local wine industry based entirely on fortified wine was too narrowly focused. The natural sweet wines of Maury are mainly produced from the Grenache grapes (Grenache Noir, Grenache Blanc and Grenache Gris). They are produced in a style very similar to the sweet wines of Banyuls, 35 miles (57km) to the southeast, which also use Grenache.


The wine region of Languedoc-Roussillon

Languedoc (formerly Coteaux du Languedoc) is a key appellation used in the Languedoc-Roussillon wine region of southern France. It covers Dry table wines of all three colors (red, white and rosé) from the entire region, but leaves Sweet and Sparkling wines to other more specialized appellations. About 75% of all Languedoc wines are red, with the remaining 25% split roughly down the middle between whites and rosés. The appellation covers most of the Languedoc region and almost a third of all the vineyards in France.
