International Classification:

A01H 500

US Classification:

Plt 47

Abstract:

A new and distinct variety of grapevine of the vinifera species, named `Symphony`, having the ability to produce either a light and dry white table wine characterized by a delicate Muscat-type aroma and flavor when harvested before full maturity or a natural sweet wine when picked more mature. The wine is very slow to oxidize and retains its typical aroma and flavor even after long periods of aging. The usual bitterness associated with Muscat-type varieties made as dry wines is not evident in the new variety.

Assignee:

The Regents of the University of California - Berkeley CA

International Classification:

A01H 503

US Classification:

Plt 47

Abstract:

A new and distinct variety of grapevine rootstock is provided. It is characterized by its immunity to feeding by the nematode vector of grapevine fanleaf virus and to feeding by phylloxera. When grafted with scion cultivars, such as `Cabernet Sauvignon,` `Chenin blanc,` and `Carignane,` the variety may be planted in soil contaminated with viruliferous nematodes and/or phylloxera and will produce healthy fruit and excellent yields.
