Discover the grape variety: Delrho

Simple colourful and fruity reds with a light purple colour, smooth tannins, an airy palate with preserved acidity, and understated aromas of red and black fruits. Productive. Now marginal, surviving in a few heritage plots in France and preserved in varietal collections for its genetic interest. French black hybrid variety developed in the 20th century as a disease-resistant cross.

East-southeast amphitheatre slopes on granite "gores" (sandy clays), Massif Central, optimal exposure.
