The white grape variety comes from Greece. The parentage (parenthood) is not known. The medium ripening vine is generally quite resistant to diseases and drought. It produces fresh, acidic white wines with aromas of peaches and stone fruits. The variety is cultivated in smaller quantities in the north-east of the Peloponnese. In 2016, however, no stocks were recorded (statistics Kym Anderson).

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
