Kolorko

The white grape variety comes from Turkey. The descent (Elkternschaft) is unknown. The late maturing, low-yielding vine has berries with a high proportion of catechin. It produces acidic, mineral white wines with aromas of herbs and citrus. This rare variety is cultivated in the south of Thrace on the north coast of the Sea of Marmara. However, no stocks were recorded in 2016 (statistics Kym Anderson).

The glossary is a monumental achievement and one of the most important contributions to wine knowledge. Of all the encyclopaedias I use on the subject of wine, it is by far the most important. That was the case ten years ago and it hasn't changed since.
