Description

<p>Principle ampelographic data has been selected to characterize vine varieties. This criteria is described in accordance with the code of descriptors recognized by the Interntaion Organization of Vine and Wine (O.I.V.), The Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (U.P.O.V) and Bioversity International.<br> Photographs of leaves and grape bunches have been taken under natural conditions, on the vine trunk in situations very close to growing conditions (sandy soil – Mediterranean coast) :</p>
<ul>
<li>Domaine de l'Espiguette (IFV), Le Grau de Roi (Gard),</li>
<li>Domaine de Vassal (INRA), Marseillan (Hérault),</li>
<li>Campus de la Gaillarde (Montpellier SupAgro), Montpellier (Hérault).</li>
</ul>
<p>Only a few photographs have been taken in other vine growing areas.</p>

Identification signs include:
- the tip fo the young shoot has a thick coat of flat-lying hairs,
- the young leaves are green with bronze patches,
- orbicular adult leaves, 5 or 7 lobes with very deep lateral sinuses, a petiolar sinus with a U-shaped base, open or slightly open; short teeth with straight sides, slight vein pigmentation, strongly bubbled leaf blade, jagged, cupped and the underside with a moderate coat of flat-lying and upright hairs,
- female flowers,
- elliptical-shaped berries.

Phenology

<p>The growth stages indicated are the result of obsrvations made at the Domaine de Vassal Estate where the set of these varieties form a collection. The results are indicated compared to the Chasselas vine variety as a reference in order to make comparisons between years and different sites. As such, for information purposes, the dates for the Chasselas B growth stage at Domaine de Vassal are as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>bud burst, 21 March (average over 50 years)</li>
<li>grape maturity, 14 August (average over 50 years)</li>
</ul>

Bud burst: 3 days before Chasselas. Grape maturity: early, 1 and 1/2 weeks before Chasselas.

Suitability for cultivation and agronomic production The synthesis of aptitudes is the result of observations made in the field or otherwise from analysis of bibliographic references.
