Ancestry

According to DNA analyses carried out in 2021, it originates from a presumably natural cross between an unknown parent variety x Savagnin Blanc (Traminer). It should not be confused with the varieties Etraire de l'Aduï (Gros Persan), Mondeuse Noire (Persagne), Pinot Noir or Syrah (Serine) due to partly identical synonyms or morphological similarities. A direct descendant is the Joubertin variety.
