The red grape variety (also Seibel 8357) is an interspecific new breeding between Seibel 6150 (Seibel 405 x Flot Rouge) x Seibel 5455 (Plantet). It contains genes from Vitis aestivalis, Vitis berlandieri, Vitis cinerea, Vitis rupestris, and Vitis vinifera. The crossing of the hybrids took place in the early 20th century in France by the breeder Albert Seibel (1844-1936). The late ripening grape varieties, yield vine is susceptible to anthracnose. It produces dark-colored, tannins red wines, which are primarily used as teinturier (dye grape) due to their color strength. In the early 1960s, it was still cultivated on about 1,200 hectares of vineyard area in southern France.
