Discover the grape variety: Brayades
Light, simple fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, soft tannins, an airy palate and moderate acidity; unassuming aromas of southern red fruits. Discreet, rustic style. Almost gone from commercial cultivation, preserved in INRAE varietal collections, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the southern vineyards. Rare French black grape, formerly cultivated in the South.
