Nero (grape variety)

The red grape variety is an interspecific new variety between Eger 2 (Villard Blanc) x Gárdonyi Géza. Synonyms are BG 15 and Bornemissza Gergely 15. It contains genes of Vitis berlandieri, Vitis rupestris and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed in 1965 by the breeder József Csizmazia. The early ripening vine is resistant to frost and both types of powdery mildew. It is cultivated in Hungary in the Eger area. However, no stocks were reported in 2016; in 2010 there had been 50 hectares (Kym Anderson statistics).

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.
