Abstract

Medna bijela is an autochthonous cultivar of the third Adriatic vine-growing subregion. Its synonyms in use are: Buboj, Bumba, Medna, Rizavac, Zložder etc. No detailed ampelographic study has been made to date; based on our research this cultivar is classified in the ecological-geographical group of Convarietas Pontica, Negr. Subconvarietas Balcanica, Provarietas Mesocarpa, Nem., Subprovarietas Dalmatica Nem. It is a medium lush wine cultivar with some 16-17 % of sugar and 6.0-7.0 g/l of total acidity, with a yield of 2.5-3.5 kg of grapes per grapevine and a load of 16 buds per grapevine. The wines are light, acidulous, with a specific fine aroma of honey, which is implied in the very name of the cultivar. It is recommended that the research should be continued, particularly on clonal selection.
