Mauzac noir
Mauzac noir is a red French wine grape variety that is grown in Southwest France. Despite the similarities in name, Mauzac noir is not a color mutation of the white Limoux wine grape Mauzac that is an important component in the ''Appellation d'origine contrôlée'' (AOC) sparkling wine Blanquette de Limoux. Today Mauzac noir is nearly extinct but at least one grower in the Gaillac AOC is attempting to revive the variety and make varietal examples of the grape.〔J. Robinson, J. Harding and J.

==History==
The earliest recorded mention of a Mauzac grape dates a 1525 document titled ''Livre de raison'' written by Antoine Antiquamareta who was the ''seigneur'' (or lord) of Villeneuve-lès-Lavaur in what is now the Tarn department. However, ampelographers and wine historians can not confirm which color Mauzac variety is being described in the document or in a similar 1564 document discovered by ampelographer Pierre Rézeau. Rézeau traced the first definitive mention of both Mauzac noir and Mauzac blanc to a 1736 report that described both grape varieties growing in the Languedoc wine region, producing round and "crunchy" berries.〔
The origins of the name ''Mauzac'' is difficult to confirm, especially since early synonyms for Mauzac blanc such as ''Mausague'', ''Mausat'' and ''Mausax'' suggest that the commune of Mauzac, Haute-Garonne may not be the origin. Master of Wine Jancis Robinson notes that another commune, Meauzac, in the Tarn-et-Garonne may have a connection to the two grape varieties.〔
