Bouillet

The red grape variety originates from France. Synonyms are Bouiller Noir, Fouine, Plant Dame Noir and Quillard. An exact first description was provided by the French ampelographer Paul Truel in Montpellier, although the variety was already mentioned in writing in 1780. However, the parentage (parentage) is unknown. The ampelographer Guy Lavignac suspects that it is a mutation of the variety Jurançon Noir, with which it is also often confused. The late-ripening vine yields light red, acid-accentuated red wines with a slight bitter tone. The variety, which is threatened by extinction, is represented in the southwest in the Lot-et-Garonne and Dordogne departments. In 2016, only one hectare was recorded (Kym Anderson).
