Ohridsko Crno

The red grape variety originates from northern Macedonia; the name means "Black of Ohrid". Synonyms are Ohridsko Noir, Ohridsko Tcherno, Ohridsko Trzno and Prespanka. The parentage is unknown. The medium to late ripening vine is moderately resistant to the fungal diseases powdery mildew, downy mildew and botrytis. It produces fresh-fruited, light red wines with moderate alcohol content, which are mostly blended with the varieties Prokupac and Vranac. The variety is grown in the Ohrid area in the southwest near the border with Albania. However, no stocks were reported in 2016 (Kym Anderson statistics).
