Discover the grape variety: Olivette noire

The exact origin of this variety is not known and it is not related to the white olivette. Today, it is very difficult to find the Olivette noire at wine nurseries because its multiplication is almost nil, registered however in the Official Catalogue of table grape varieties list A1. There is still the possibility of grafting it yourself, provided that you get grafts that are in a satisfactory state of health, which is not always the case.
