• Vidal Blanc: A French Hybrid with a history in Cognac production, notes of grapefruit and pineapple define this vigorous vine.
• Cabernet Franc: Often used for blending in the Estate Red, this variety adds finesse and peppery notes to the mix.
• Cabernet Sauvignon: The flagship grape believed to have originated from a natural hybridization, known for its prominent role in high-quality wines globally.
