This is an ancient grape variety from the southwest that used to be found mainly in the Lot (west of the Cahors vineyard) and Tarn-et-Garonne departments. It is now little present in the vineyard and is therefore in the process of disappearing, although it is listed in the Official Catalogue of Wine Grape Varieties, list A1.

The wine region of Minnesota

Minnesota is a state located in the North Central United States, bordered by Canada to the north and Iowa to the South. The state's Harsh continental Climate makes viticulture difficult. However, research at the University of Minnesota on cold-hardy Hybrid Grape varieties has opened up opportunities for Minnesota wine producers. The state covers 225,000 square miles between latitudes 43°N and 49°N, which puts it roughly on par with the United States.

The word of the wine: Destemming

Operation consisting in eliminating the vegetal part of the bunch supporting the berries, its maceration with the must giving a herbaceous taste to the wine.
