Ampelographic varietal characteristics

In ampelography , the habitus is described as follows:

  • The shoot tip is open. It is hairy white wool with a slight carmine red tinge. The light green, bronze-colored spotted young leaves are only slightly hairy.
  • The medium-sized leaves are five-lobed and deeply indented (see also the article leaf shape ). The stem bay is closed and the ends overlap. The sheet is serrated to a point. The teeth are closely set compared to other grape varieties.
  • The cylindrical to conical grape is large and quite dense. The round to slightly oval berries are medium-sized and bluish-purple in color. The berries are very juicy.

Aidanii Mavro is a variety of the noble grapevine ( Vitis vinifera ). It has hermaphrodite flowers and is therefore self-fertilizer. In viticulture , the economic disadvantage of not having to plant any male plants that produce yield is avoided.
