The white grape variety is a new variety between Ezerjó x Savagnin(Traminer). According to DNA analyses carried out in 2013, the parenthood Ryzlink Rynsky(Riesling) x Sémillon, which is stated in the breeding list, turned out to be incorrect. The crossing was made in the Slovakian Oenology Research Centre in Velky Krtis. The plant variety protection was granted in 2002. The late maturing vine is resistant to frost, but susceptible to botrytis. It produces fresh white wines with fine acidity and citrus aroma. The area under cultivation in Slovakia in 2010 was one hectare (statistics Kym Anderson).

The Wine lexicon helps me to keep up to date and refresh my knowledge. Thank you for this Lexicon that will never end in terms of topicality! That's what makes it so exciting to come back often.
