List of grape varieties

Cabernet Dorsa is a German- bred red wine variety . It was created by crossing the Blaufränkisch and Dornfelder varieties . The original information provided by the breeders Helmut Schleip and Bernd HE Hill, that it was a cross between Dornfelder and Cabernet Sauvignon , has in the meantime been refuted by a DNA analysis.

It was presented in 1971 by the State Training and Research Institute for Viticulture and Fruit Growing in Weinsberg . 33 years later it was entered in the list of varieties . In Germany in 2007 an area of ​​222 hectares (0.2% of the German vineyard area) was planted with the Cabernet Dorsa grape variety. The area has been increasing for several years. In 2006, 214 hectares of arable land were planted after only 162 hectares were surveyed in 2004. The grape variety has good winter hardiness, achieves higher must weights than Dornfelder or Spätburgunder , and the red wine is suitable for aging in small wooden barrels, the barrique . Smaller stocks are also known in Switzerland (20.4 hectares, status 2007, source: Office fédéral de l'agriculture OFAG)

The grape varieties Acolon and Cabernet Dorio come from the same cross . Cabernet Dorsa is a variety of the noble grapevine ( Vitis vinifera ). It has hermaphroditic flowers and is therefore self-fruiting. In viticulture , the economic disadvantage of not having to grow male plants that produce yield is avoided.
