Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour, supple mouthfeel and moderate acidity, showing undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. Productive. Now marginal, surviving in a few French varietal collections as a witness to post-phylloxera hybridisation history. French white hybrid obtained by Georges Couderc in the late 19th century, in the lineage of phylloxera-resistant crossings.

The word of the wine: Reassembly
During the vinification process, a "cap" is formed at the top of the vats with the solid parts (skin, pulp, pips, etc.), which contain tannins and colouring elements. Pumping over consists of emptying the vat from the bottom and pouring the juice back to the top, in order to mix the cap and the juice and to favour the exchange and the extraction. This old technique allows a better exchange between the solid parts and the liquid.
