Life Style / Wine Grapes / Albania: Vigorous, productive V. Aestivalis hybrid female pollinate variety created by T.V. Munson reported to be a complex Post Oak/ Norton /Herbemont cross variety. Has a very late season (reported as early October in Missouri) maturity, even later than Villard Blanc, and requires a hot climate to fully ripen. Recommended by some as suitable for planting in Kansas and other south-central States. Does not flourish in lime-contaminated soils. Growers report mixing rows of this variety with any self-pollinating variety gives good pollination results. Reported to have poor resistance to Pierces Disease. White wine claimed to have somewhat spicy aromatic and taste flavor resemblance to Gew?rztraminer.
