The white grape variety is an interspecific new breeding between (Amurensis x Vinifera) x Afus Ali. It contains genes from Vitis amurensis and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed in 1960 in Hungary by István Koleda and István Tamassy. It was a crossing partner in the new variety Zlata. The medium to late ripening vine is moderately resistant to Botrytis. It produces acidic white wines with aromas of citrus fruits and apples, which are mainly used for sparkling wines. It is cultivated in Hungary in the areas of Csongrád, Hajós-Baja and Kunság in the Hungarian Great Plain (Alföld). In 2010, 974 hectares of vineyards were reported with a decreasing trend (Kym Anderson).
