Divona

A crossing between Bronner (a German varietal) and Gamaret, the white Divona grape is the result of 20 years of patient and meticulous selection by Agroscope. The Divona has a very good wine potential and a resistance to gray rot thanks to Gamaret. The grape of the Bronner protects it strongly against the mildew and the powdery mildew (diseases caused by mushrooms).

Divona (codename IRAC 2060) was selected among thousands of applicants on the basis of both vine and wine criteria: disease resistance, adaptation to climate, production capacity and sugar content. This new grape shares the same parents as the red Divico who is already enjoying a promising development.
