Mondeuse in the book by Viala & Vermorel

Mondeuse or Mondeuse Noire is a red wine variety that is primarily grown in the French wine-growing region of Savoy . It is an old, autochthonous variety. Due to their age, numerous synonyms are known. The ampelographer Roy-Chevrier even suspected that the Mondeuse was the Allobrogicae described by Pliny the Elder . This honor can also go to the Syrah or the Nebbiolo vine. Mondeuse provides with yield restrictions of max. 60 hectoliters / hectare peppery, brightly colored and alcoholic wines that can age well. In France it is approved in the Vin de Savoie and Vin du Bugey appellations . The forested area there amounts to a total of approx. 301 hectares (status 2007, source ONIVINS) Small stands are also known in Australia (approx. 12 hectares) and in Switzerland (3.63 hectares, status 2007, source: Office fédéral de l ' agriculture OFAG known.

In California (→ Viticulture in California ) there is a stock of approx. 40 hectares. Here it is mistakenly called Refosco . According to Pierre Galet , however, it is not related to the Refosco variety, which is widespread in Friuli Italy . However, he recognizes a certain relationship to the Muscardin grape variety , which is known in the Rhone valley .

There is also a grape variety Mondeuse Blanche , a white grape variety that is not a mutation of Mondeuse Noire. According to José Vouillamoz , however, both varieties are in a parent-child relationship. Louis Levadoux, a French ampelographer, assigned Mondeuse to the “famille des Sérines” grape variety family, which also includes the Syrah , Roussanne , Viognier , Altesse and Marsanne blanche varieties . Accordingly, the variety would come from the south-east of France. In the past, a Mondeuse Grise was described by the ampelographer Pulliat, but it is believed to have died out.
