Abstract
Several years ago in the city area of Kastav several grape and wine producers in cooperation with scientific institutions and local-government tried to restore the grape production based on autochthonous grapevine varieties. The first step has already been done by identifying several indigenous varieties. After the identification, Verdić, Mejsko belo, Divjaka, Jarbola and Brajkovac variety were propagated and planted in new vineyards of local producers. The aim of this study was to determine the basic yeald and ampelographic characteristics of mentioned varieties in vineyards of local grepe and wine producers in Kastav. Analysis of the data is determined by the number of bunches per vine, yield per vine, the chemical composition of must and mechanical composition of the cluster and berry. This research set out the basic differences between varieties and economic potential of each variety. Variety Verdić have the largest and variety Brajkovac the smallest dimensions and mass of the cluster. Variety Jarbola have the largest berry mass and the highest proportion of meat in the cluster mass. Also it has a very large number of clusters per vine. The Divjaka variety is distinguished by its high yield-set potential and the smallest mass of berry. The varieties of Mejsko Belo and Brajkovac have higher sugar content and proved to be potentially best-quality varieties in this year of research.
