Cabernet Jura

The red grape variety is an interspecific new variety between Cabernet Sauvignon x Cabernet Severny. Synonyms are Cabernet Jura 5-02, Valentin Blattner 5-02 and VB 5-02, which contain genes from Vitis amurensis and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed in 1991 by grower Valentin Blattner in Soyhières in the Swiss canton of Jura and selected at vine nursery Freytag in Neustadt/Lachen-Speyerdorf (Palatinate, Germany).

Characteristics

The medium-ripening, frost-hardy vine is resistant to both mildew and botrytis, which is why it is considered a PIWI variety. It produces intensely coloured, aromatic red wines with a subtle muscat tone.

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.
