The variety was a crossing partner in the new variety Nerkeni. The medium to late maturing vine is resistant to frost and downy mildew, but susceptible to powdery mildew. It is grown in western Armenia, mainly in the province of Armavir, and is used as a blend in simple white and dessert wines, as well as for the production of table grapes, grape juice and distillates. Smaller stocks are also said to exist in Ukraine. However, no stocks were reported in 2016 (Kym Anderson statistics).
