Mauzac or Mauzac Blanc is a minor grape variety mainly grown in the Gaillac region southeast of Bordeaux in France. [1]

In Gaillac its aromatic wines are blended with Len de l'El to create mildly sweet and sparkling white blended wines. Mauzac is a compulsory part of the Blanquette de Limoux, where it is blended with Chenin and Chardonnay.[1] The grape is also one of the seven permitted white varieties permitted in Bordeaux wine.[2]
