Discover the grape variety: Plantet
Colored, fruity reds with an intense ruby robe, smooth tannins and a supple palate, with simple aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry), soft spices and hybrid notes. Productive, cold- and disease-resistant profile for early drinking. Now marginal, surviving in a few French heritage plots and varietal collections for its genetic and historical interest. French black hybrid obtained by Albert Seibel (Seibel 5455).
