Remus-new variety of vine for rose and red wines with high biological resistance

Abstract

The scientific research in the field of vine improvement, with a permanent role in the diversification the assortments of vine, is oriented both to the creation of new qualitative and productive genotypes, but also to the obtaining of genotypes with increased resistance to diseasesand tolerance to stress factors. In order to respond to this goal, at R.D.S.V.O. Odobeşti, through the hybridization directed between the intraspecific hybrid(Băbească neagră x Fetească neagră) and the interspecific hybrid Couderc 14 (Vitis lincecumii x Aramon)has been obtained and homologated in 2016 the assortment called Remus.The new creation is characterized by small to medium sized grapes (167g), small berry (1.9 g), with crisp core and dark red-purple coloured skin, the pulp is firm, semi-soft, very slightly colored. The average grape productionis 4.0kg/vin, respectively 15.5tons/ha. It presents high biological resistance to major cryptogamic diseases. The grapes reach maturity in the epoch V. Are obtained the rose or red wines for current consumationorhigh quality, with anaverage alcoholic potential (11.5 –12.0% alcohol by volume), relatively low acidity (5.8-6.8 g/Ltartaric acid), and mean values of the non-reducing extract (17.9 -19.5 g/L).
