Discover the grape variety: Perle de Csaba
It is thought to have originated in Hungary, as Adolf Stark, a winegrower in Bekescsaba (Hungary), created it in 1904. According to genetic analyses, it is the result of a cross between the Madeleine angevine and the Muscat fleur d'oranger. The Csaba pearl has been used to obtain a few crosses (the red Csaba pearl is an example), the aim always being to try to find new varieties with early maturity. Today, it is only found in ornamental gardens, interesting only for its great earliness. Its many defects mean that it is almost on the verge of extinction, although it is included in the official catalogue of vine varieties on the A1 list.
