Parentage & Descendants

The US botanist Thomas Volney Munson Thomas Volney (1843-1913) later classified the hybrids under the species Vitis bourquina (ex wild vines Vitis aestivalis x Vitis cinerea). According to the VIVC catalog, it originates from a presumably natural cross between Vitis aestivalis x Vitis vinifera. However, analyses by South African biochemist Dr. Jeronimo Rodrigues suggest that some facts indicate it is a cross of Vitis berlandieri x Vitis vinifera. Jacquez was a crossing partner in the new cultivars Black Herbemont and Jacquez à Gros Grains.
