Discover the grape variety: Cabernet-Cantor
Colourful and simply fruity reds with a deep purple hue, supple tannins and an ample palate with preserved acidity, featuring signature aromas of black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry), green pepper and herbaceous notes reminiscent of Cabernet. Productive and resistant. Grown in Germany, Belgium and the United Kingdom for northern organic vineyards. German black hybrid grape obtained in 1987 at Geilweilerhof, a disease-resistant crossing involving Cabernet Sauvignon.
