SUMMARY
In order to expand the number of red grape cultivars suitable for Northern
Dalmatia subregion experimental vineyard has been planted on the farm
“Bastica” PK Zadar. The large number of red grape cultivar has been introducted.
Seven of them are spread in central and southern Italy (Montepulciano,
Sangiovese, Malvasia nera di Lecce, Ciliegiolo, Aglianico, Cabernet sauvignon,
Moscato rosa), which have similar ecological conditions as the area of
Ravni Kotari. During the five years period agrobiological, and production-technological
characteristic (vegetation cycle, yield, bud fertility, mechanical composition
of berries and bunches, most and wine quality) have been investigated
under these ecological conditions.
According to the results of the firs introduction, cultivars Cabernet
sauvignon, Sangiovese, Ciliegiolo and Moscato rosa have shown the best
results, and it has been recommended to plant them on larger experimental
fields. Besides these cultivars, some of the other may be interesting
too, but it is necessary to make some changes in production technology
in order to express their full genetic potential.
