One of the grapes from the Bordeaux region that sometimes accompanies the red wines produced from Cabernet and Merlot.

Medium yield and maturity, although its budding is very early. The bunches are small-medium in size. It is susceptible to oidio and to wind. It produces wines very rich in tannins, mature with a high level of colour, very suitable for mixing with wines of other varieties in small quantities.

In Castilla-La Mancha it has been adopted by some growers of Spanish Wines from Tierra de Castilla for the production of signature wines.
