It is an all-female grape variety, therefore it is dependent on cross-pollination by other vines. It is cultivated in the region of Mostar in the south of the country and serves mostly as a blends for the main Bosnian-Herzegovinian variety Žilavka. However, no stocks were recorded in 2016 (statistics Kym Anderson).

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.
