 Currently, there are two clones of Pineau d'Aunis being widely propagated.Clone #289 which lends itself more to "vin gris" style wines and Clone #235.In recent years, some "vignerons" have been moving away from using clonal selections in lieu of using "massale" cuttings taken from a broad swath of vines from old "pre-clonal" vineyards with the aim of creating more genetic diversity in the vineyard.
