Generosa (grape variety)

There are at least three grape varieties with this designation:

Ezerjó x Gewürztraminer - Hungary

The white grape variety (also Kecskemét 15) is a new variety between Ezerjó x Piros Tramini(Gewürztraminer). It was cross-bred in Hungary in 1951 by the breeder Bíró Károly. After a long testing period it was finally released only in 2004. The late-ripening, high-yielding vine with hard-shelled, pink berries is resistant to fungi, frost and drought. It produces acidic, spicy white wines. The variety is cultivated almost exclusively in the Kunság area (98 ha), and in small quantities also Csongrád and Hajós-Baja. In 2016, a total of 325 hectares of vineyard area were declared in Hungary with a strong upward trend (statistics Kym Anderson).
