The red grape variety is a new variety between Cabernet Sauvignon x Băbească Neagră. It was crossed in Romania in 1985 by the private breeders D. Danulescu, E. Negulescu, G. Sandu-Ville and P. Virna. It is used as a wine grape. In 2016 a vineyard area of just under one hectare was designated (Kym Anderson).
As honorary chairman of the Domäne Wachau, it is the easiest and quickest way for me to access the wein.plus encyclopaedia when I have questions. The certainty of receiving well-founded and up-to-date information here makes it an indispensable guide.
