Pintade de l'Ardèche

Pintade de l'Ardèche is guinea fowl meat of the highest quality, produced in the French region of Ardéche. The animals are reared in the open air where they roam the ranges freely, their diet consisting of 100% vegetables, minerals and vitamins, and 80% of it being cereals.

They can not be slaughtered until they are at least 94 days old, making the meat finer than in other poultry where 77 days is the standard for slaughter. These rustic animals have white to yellow skin and gray legs, with firm meat that is low in fat, has an intense taste and dark color.
