Bud-burst period: everage-late.
Ripening period: late.
Yield: high and constant.
Ampelographic characters:
the bud, with an open, cottony apex, is green in colour with carmine edges. The leaves are medium-sized, pentagonal and five-lobed. The petiolar sinus is V-shaped with overlapping lobes. The underside is velvety, with very evident teeth. The cluster is large, stumpy-pyramidal or conical, winged and averagely compact. The large, spheroidal berry has a thick and consistent pruinose skin with a conspicuous umbilicus. The flesh is juicy, with a neutral flavour.
Cultural aptitude:
vigorous vine with a semi-upright growth habit which adapts to different climates.
Training system and pruning:
it prefers long and rich pruning.
Susceptibility to diseases and adverse conditions:
not very susceptible to diseases and adversities in general. It avoids spring frosts due to its average-late bud-bursting.
Enological potential:
it gives wines of an intense straw-yellow colour, with a dry, full flavour and good acidity. It should be consumed young or after a brief ageing.
Clones in propagation:
Passerina VCR6, VCR450, TCG2ISV, UBARAPA18.
