The red grape variety originates from the USA. Synonyms are Bergerac, Bull's Seedling, Concord Crni, Corin, Cornin, Dalmadin, Fehérhatu, Fekete Noah, Furmin Noir, Gorin, Gurin, Jurka, Kék Olasz, Koncord, Konkordi, Konkordia, Nyarfalevelü, Nyarlevelü, Olasz Kék, Paul Revere, Ripadella, Ripatella, Ripertella, Ripotella, Varatura and Wheeler. Some synonyms refer to the cultivar Ripatella, which used to be considered distinct. It was not until 2016 that DNA analyses in Geisenheim (Rheingau) established that this is genetically identical to Concord. The exact lineage of Concord was also determined in 2016 at the Julius Kühn Institute (Geilweilerhof) by DNA analyses. It originates from a presumably natural cross between Catawba (Vitis labrusca x Sémillon) x Vitis labrusca. Two mutations are Concord Clone 30 and King.
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.
