The red grape variety is an interspecific new breeding between America x Profusion. It contains genes from Vitis aestivalis, Vitis labrusca and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed in California in 1897 by the US botanist Thomas Volney Munson (1843-1913) at the Agricultural Experiment Station of the University of California. No population was recorded in 2016 (Kym Anderson statistics).

Voices of our members

There is a vast number of sources on the web where one can acquire knowledge about wine. But none has the scope, timeliness and accuracy of the information in the encyclopaedia at wein.plus. I use it regularly and rely on it.
