Discover the grape variety: Roi des noirs

Interspecific crossing between 29 Seibel (70 jeager x Vitis Vinifera unknown) and the danugue made by Eugène Contassot, who would have given the seeds of the harvested grapes to Albert Seibel (1844-1936). The King of the Blacks has been widely cultivated, particularly in southwestern France and in the center-west, where we have found and photographed it. It was used several times as a sire by Albert Seibel, rubilande or 11803 Seibel is a good example.
