Dokuchaeva in Ukraine. The variety was a crossing partner in the new variety Arolanka. It is used as a cold grape and table grape. No stocks were reported 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.
