Osella

The red grape variety (also FR 498-90 R) is an interspecific new cross between Solaris x Muscat Bleu. The hybrid was crossed in 1991 at the State Viticultural Institute in Freiburg (Baden-Württemberg) by Norbert Becker (1937-2012). The same parents also produced the new varieties Galante and Garantos. The early-ripening vine is resistant to frost and both types of mildew. It is used as table grape. Due to its decorative leaves, it is also very suitable as an ornamental vine on house walls. No stocks were reported in 2016 (Kym Anderson).
