Discover the grape variety: Noah

American, resulting from a natural cross between taylor (Vitis Labrusca x Vitis Riparia) and Vitis Riparia, the seeds of the taylor then sown in 1869 by Otto Wasserzicher in Nauvoo, Illinois. Noah has been used extensively as a progenitor by hybridizers such as Baco, Bertille-Seyve, Castel, Gaillard and Seibel, the best known being baco blanc or baco 22A (folle blanche x Noah). In France, it is one of the six hybrids prohibited since 1935 (included in European regulations): clinton, herbemont, isabelle, jacquez, Noah and othello. Today, it has practically disappeared and can sometimes be found in private homes established in vineyards.
