Divona

The white grape variety is an interspecific new variety between Bronner x Gamaret. It was named after the Celtic goddess of the same name, who was responsible for the holy spring in the town of Burdigala (Bordeaux). The goddess is mentioned in a Latin poem by the Roman poet Ausonius (310-395), who lived there.

Divona - Weintraube

It contains genes from Vitis amurensis, Vitis lincecumii, Vitis rupestris and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed in 1997 in Switzerland at the Institute for Vine Breeding in Changins by grower Jean-Laurent Spring. The same parents also produced the red variety Divico.
