The red grape variety (also Baco 30-15) is an interspecific new breeding between Couderc 4401 (Oiseau Rouge) x Baco 1 (Baco Noir). It contains genes from Vitis riparia, Vitis rupestris and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed by the French breeder François Baco (1865-1947). No stocks were reported in 2016 (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.
