Ancestry

According to DNA analyses carried out in 2021, it originates from a presumably natural cross between Alba Imputotato x Lisztes Fehér. It should not be confused with the Italian variety Cascarolo Bianco, as the pomologist Hermann Goethe (1837-1911) wrongly assumed. The variety was a parent of the Blauer Augster and Tihanyi varieties. It is an all-female grape variety, which requires cross-pollination.

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.
