Discover the grape variety: Dunkelfelder

Intraspecific crossing between the madeleine angevine and the dyer of Cher obtained in 1928 by Gustav Adolf (1847/1912) of the Research Institute in Geinsenheim (Germany). We can meet it certainly in Germany but also in Belgium, in Switzerland, in England, in the United States, in Canada... almost unknown in France. It should not be confused with the dornfelder, also of German origin.
