Discover the grape variety: Bertille Seyve 872
Colourful, simple fruity reds with a light purple robe, silky tannins and an airy palate with preserved acidity, showing undemonstrative aromas of red and black fruits. Early-ripening and productive. Now marginal, surviving in a few varietal collections and bearing witness to the history of post-phylloxera hybridisation in France. French black hybrid obtained in the early 20th century by Bertille Seyve, an interspecific disease-resistant cross.
