The red wine is deep red in color and is often used in blends to improve the color of weak red wines. The opacity of the color came from the new variety Alicante Bouschet, which belongs to the family of dye grapes . The flesh of the Neronet is also intense red. It is a variety of the noble grapevine ( Vitis vinifera ). Neronet has hermaphrodite flowers and is therefore self-fruiting. In viticulture , the economic disadvantage of not having to grow male plants that produce yield is avoided.
