Complex interspecific crossing between 12375 Seyve-Villard (2 Eger) and Bouvier - a variety of Austrian origin - obtained in 1963 and in Hungary by Csizmazia Jozsef and Bereznai Laszlo. It should be noted that Bianca, a monogenic variety, which is nevertheless resistant to certain cryptogamic diseases, was "bypassed" in 2010 by a less resistant strain of mildew, which was also the case for Regent. It can be found in the United States, Serbia, Hungary, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, ... almost unknown in France. In these countries, it is certainly the most cultivated as a wine grape but it can also be found on the markets.
