Discover the grape variety: Petit brun
The petit brun is a black grape variety that is becoming rarer. It is found particularly in Provence, where it is one of the many other grape varieties that make up the reputation of this region. It is probably of Italian origin and is used to make the best red wines. It is known as "brun des Hautes Alpes". In order to be more productive, the vine needs to be pruned short and develops perfectly when it is well exposed. In France, Petit Brun is one of the secondary grape varieties used in the Palette appellations. The AOC Palette is considered the oldest in Provence. The wine made from petit brun is a dark red, particularly tannic. It gives off aromas of undergrowth and a floral scent. In the wines of Château Crémade, the petit brun gives them an exceptional subtlety.
