Variety Description

Variety used for comparison: 'Cabernet Jura'

Summary: The upper side of the young leaf blade of 'Cabernet Volos' is green with anthocyanin spots while the upper side of the young leaf blade of 'Cabernet Jura' is dark copper red.

Description:

YOUNG SHOOT TIP: fully opened, very sparse to sparse prostrate hairs, very weak to weak intensity of anthocyanin colouration of prostrate hairs, absent or very sparse erect hairs
SHOOT: dorsal side of internodes and nodes are green and red, ventral side of internodes and nodes are green, absent or very sparse erect hairs on internodes, semi-erect to horizontal attitude (before tying)
WOODY SHOOTS: orange brown, absent or very sparse erect hairs on internodes, medium to late bud burst
TENDRILS: long to very long

PETIOLE: much longer than middle vein of mature leaf blade
YOUNG LEAF BLADE: upper side green with anthocyanin spots, absent or very sparse prostrate and erect hairs between and on main veins on lower side
MATURE LEAF BLADE: five lobes, small to medium sized, circular shaped, very weak to weak blistering on upper side, slightly open lobes of petiole sinus, medium proportion of main veins on upper side with anthocyanin colouration
MATURE LEAF BLADE (LOWER SIDE): absent to very sparse prostrate hairs between main veins, absent or very sparse erect hairs on main veins
UPPER LATERAL SINUSES: medium depth, slightly overlapped lobes
TEETH OF LEAF MARGIN: medium length, small to medium length to width ratio, both sides convex

FLOWER: hermaphrodite type

BERRY BUNCH: medium to large, dense, short to medium length peduncle of primary bunch
BERRY: begins ripening early to mid-season, small, globose, moderately easy to detach from pedicel, no particular flavour, seed formation complete
BERRY SKIN: blue black (without bloom), medium thickness
BERRY FLESH: soft or slightly firm, absent or very weak intensity of anthocyanin colouration

Origin & Breeding History: 'Cabernet Volos' originated from a controlled cross conducted between the female parent variety 'Cabernet Sauvignon' and the male parent variety '20/3' made by the University of Udine and the Institute for Applied Genomics in Udine, Friuli Venezia Giulia Region of Italy in June 2002. The controlled cross was conducted using cluster isolation and flower emasculation in the seed parent and cluster isolation in the pollen donor prior to flowering. The first asexual multiplication occurred in 2005. The resulting seedling was selected at the Servadei experimental farm in Udine, Italy based on resistance to mildew, tolerance to Oidium, medium vigour, chemical composition of the berries, wine quality and grafting affinity. 'Cabernet Volos' was selected and designated in 2010. The genetic identity of the seedling was verified by DNA microsatellite markers. From 2011 to 2013, the variety was evaluated in production plots of 25 or 100 individuals in two ecologically different sites, Udine and Fossalon Grado, on rootstocks 1103 Paulsen and Kober 5BB.

Tests & Trials: The detailed description of 'Cabernet Volos' is based on the UPOV report of Technical Examination, application number 20150362, purchased from the Community Plant Variety Office in Angers, France. The trials were conducted at the Bundessortenamt in Hannover, Germany from 2017 to 2018.
