Wines made from Plantet grapes of France
Discover the best wines made with Plantet as a single variety or as a blend of France.
Colored, fruity reds with an intense ruby robe, smooth tannins and a supple palate, with simple aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry), soft spices and hybrid notes. Productive, cold- and disease-resistant profile for early drinking. Now marginal, surviving in a few French heritage plots and varietal collections for its genetic and historical interest. French black hybrid obtained by Albert Seibel (Seibel 5455).
France, home of Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne, is arguably the world's largest wine-producing country. For centuries, it has produced more wine - and apparently better quality - than any other country. Wine is embedded in French culture at almost every level of society; it is the drink of the elite and the common people, and a key symbol of Roman Catholicism, the majority religion in France. However, the lasting appeal of French wine is not necessarily its Volume or prestige, but rather the variety of styles available.
