There are two grape varieties with this name:
The red grape variety (also Christina) is a new cross between Chardonnay x Băbească Neagră. The cross was made at the Murfatlar vine breeding station (Romania) by the breeders A. Ionescu and M. Oslobeanu. It is used as a wine grape. However, no stock was reported in 2016 (Kym Anderson).
The grape variety is an interspecific new variety; however, the parents are not known. The crossing took place in Brazil. It is used as table grape. No stock was recorded in 2016 (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.
