Lydia

The white grape variety is an open-pollinated seedling of the Isabella variety. Synonyms are Isabella Krasnaia, Isabella Rosovaia, Lidia and Lidiya. Genes of Vitis aestivalis, Vitis labrusca and Vitis vinifera are present. The hybrid was selected in the USA by the breeder C. Carpenter. The red-berried vine produces light red wines that are often blended with Isabella. It is also used as a table grape. The variety reached Azerbaijan at the end of the 19th century, and later Ukraine, Russia, Moldova and Romania. In 2016, however, no stocks were reported (Kym Anderson).

Sigi Hiss

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
