NERONET - wine from Prague vineyards

SALABKA Winery

The variety was bred in 1965 in former Czechoslovakia, in Lednice in Moravia, by crossing varieties (Svatovavrinecké x Blue Portugal) x Alibernet. The breeder of the variety is Prof. Ing. V. Kraus, CSc. The aim of the crossing was to get a variety, a dye, but earlier ripening than Alibernet. The name of the variety is composed of two parts, the word "nero", in Italian "black" may be a reminder of the dark color of the wine, the suffix indicates that it is a cabernet type and one of the parents of this wine is the Alibernet variety.
