Abstract

This paper describes some ampelographic characteristics of young shoot, mature leaf, bunch and berry, ripening time, grape yield, mechanical characteristics of bunch and berry, grape and wine quality of five new grapevine genotypes created for red wine production. All features of the examined genotypes were compared to the reference cultivar 'Merlot'. The influence of genotype was significant for all of the studied traits. Genotype 8417 appeared to be the most promising for yield and grape quality. Wines have been produced and analyzed. Genotypes 13283 and 8417 obtained high scores in sensory evaluation. All the investigated genotypes have been proposed to the Committee on new varieties in Serbia.
