The grape was created by French viticulturalist Albert Seibel and was crossed with the Seibel grape 405 to create Seibel 6150 which was one of the parent varieties for Colobel which is still grown in New York.[1]

Synonyms

Over the years, Flot rouge has been known under a variety of synonyms including: Roi des Hybrides and Seibel 1020.[2]
