Foremost among them is M. Boucherot, proprietor of the estate of Carbonieux. For a long time he has cultivated all the best known vines of France and other countries, has main- tained a collection of synonymous plants, and experimented in his vast vineyard with all the special methods of cultivation usual in the Gironde. He has not only used the results to his own advantage, but allowed everybody to profit by his observations. The most common vine is the Carbenet Sauvignon.^ This vine is also t...ermed Petite Vidure in thq neighbourhood of Bordeaux. Its canes have nodes at frequent intervals ; its leaves are small, rather thick, more long than broad, with five lobes separated by deeply cut sinuses, and strongly toothed at the margin. Their upper side is rugged, and of a light green colour; their lower side is slightly woolly. The blossom is not very easily spoiled by cold weather. The bunch of grapes is of less than middle size, pyramidal, longish, generally bearing two somewhat detached wings.
