Mondeuse blanche (French pronunciation: [mɔ̃døz blɑ̃ʃ] ) is a variety of white grape almost exclusively found in and around the Savoy (Savoie) wine region in France.[1] With just 5 hectares (12 acres) of plantations in 1999, it leads a dwindling existence and is used primarily in the VDQS wine Bugey and the AOC Vin de Savoie.
