Schwarzer Heunisch - Weintraube und Blatt

Ancestry

According to DNA analyses carried out in 2016, it originates from a presumably natural cross between Süßschwarz x Weißer Heunisch (Gouais Blanc). Black Heunisch is also a synonym for the independent varieties Blue Heunisch and Somszoeloe Kék (25 DNA markers) - both without a genetic Heunisch relationship.

It is a purely female grape variety, which is why it is dependent on cross-fertilisation. See a list of all varieties in the large Heunisch group under Gouais Blanc (White Heunisch).
