# Varietals

Varietals represent different product varieties in Claret, commonly used in wine and agricultural operations to categorize products by variety (e.g., Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon). Each varietal has a name, code, and associated color classification.

Varietals are assigned to Parent WIP items. See [Work In Process Aged Items](/master-data/items/work-in-process-aged-items.md)
