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>

The identification is based on:
- the tip of the young shoot with a high density of prostate hairs,
- the green young leaves with bronze spots,
- the circular adult leaves, with five or seven lobes, very deep lateral sinuses, an open or slightly open U-shaped petiole sinus, with sometimes naked petiole veins, short teeth with straight sides, a weak anthocyanin coloration of veins, a strongly blistered, twisted and goffered leaf blade, and on the lower side of the leaves, a medium density of erect and prostate hairs,
- the female flowers,
- the ellipsoid 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: very early season, 1 week and a half 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.
