The Herbemont d'Aurelles 1 and Herbemont d'Aurelles 2 grape varieties originate from Algeria. They are open-pollinated seedlings of the Herbemont variety. The father variety is therefore unknown. The selection was made by the eponymous breeder M. d'Aurelles de Paladines. A Herbemont d'Aurelle was the parent variety of the new variety Excelsior (1). No stocks were reported in 2016 (Kym Anderson statistics).
Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
