Hrvatica

The red grape variety originates from Croatia. Synonyms are Carbonera, Corbina, Corredera, Crevatizza, Karbonera, Markolina, Negrara, Negrona (Italy); Hrvatica Crna, Jalovina, Jarbola and Karbonic (Croatia).

Hrvatica - Weintraube und Blatt

Parentage

The ancestry (parentage) is unknown. The assumption that it is identical to the Italian Croatina (with the same name meaning) was refuted by DNA analyses. It turned out that the black-berried variety Jarbola is identical, but the white-berried variety called Jarbola Bijela is not related.

Characteristics

The early to medium-maturing, high-yielding vine is particularly susceptible to downy mildew. It tends to produce red wines with a weak colour, which is why it is better suited to rosé wines.
