The white grape variety comes from Hungary. Synonyms are Aprafer, Apro Fehér, Balinka, Bela Mirkovascsa, Budai Rizling, Budai Vert, Carcioasa, Fehér Bálint, Kleinweiß, Ofener Riesling, Sarga Budai, Weißer Bálint, Zelenka and Zoeld Bálint. The parentage (parenthood) is unknown. A direct descendant is Slankamenka. She must not be confused with the varieties Berbecel or Silvaner (both with synonym Bálint). In 2016 no stocks were reported (Kym Anderson).
The wein.plus encyclopaedia is a comprehensive, well-researched reference work. Available anytime and anywhere, it has become an indispensable part of teaching, used by students and myself alike. Highly recommended!
