Autochthonous sorts of vine
Tomislav Ivandija
Sažetak
The history of vineyards and cultivating of grape wine in Croatia has its roots in ancient times, even B.C. Considering the fact that Croatia is in a zone with favorable conditions for cultivating wine grape, and different climatic conditions, there is a great variety of cultivars, some of which are specific for our area and they have been determined to be our autochthonous sorts.
In the second part of the 19th century, with the appearance of the American diseases and phylloxera, vineyards were deteriorating and by that a large number of autochthonous sorts as well. That disappearance continues today, but it is caused by many other reasons, as an insufficient care and the inexistence of a national politics which would encourage revitalization of some valuable sorts. The most important scientific and expert results have shown that a large number of autochthonous sorts (around 130) can be found in Croatia, but this paper describes only some of them.
