Sažetak
In Croatia, like in all Mediterranean countries, there is a centuries-old tradition in grape and wine production. A whole set of geographical and climate characteristics, next to historical and social circumstances, caused diversity in grapevine cultivars in such a small territory.
Economic problems, together with the emersion of phylloxera and cryptogenic diseases in the 19th century caused the disappearance of traditional ways in viticulture along with the extinction of respectable number of cultivars of the grapevine. Scientific project "Ampelographic and genetic evaluation of the autochthonous grapevine cultivars“, next to many other projects on the Faculty of Agriculture in Zagreb were started with the purpose of making a detailed evaluation of the remaining grapevine cultivars in Croatia and their revitalization. At the same time, an active government policy supporting the increase of grapevine production resulted in an economic revitalization of a certain number of autochthonous grapevine cultivars. The production of the grapevine planting material in the period from 2004 to 2010 grew continuously and reached its top in 2006 and 2007. When it comes to autochthonous cultivars, the upsurge in the production is visible as in the total quantity, so in the increasing number of cultivars.
In the production of planting material of the autochthonous cultivars, the highest share belongs to traditionally the most popular cultivars Plavac Mali and Malvazija istarska, following by cultivars Debit, Plavina, Babic, Marastina, Posip, Zlahtina, Crljenak kastelanski and Malvasija dubrovacka. The beginning of the production of the planting material of certain autochthonous cultivars can be associated with the results of the projects mentioned above. These facts show the increase in the popularity and importance of the autochthonous cultivars in Croatian wine market, which certainly encourages Croatia’s reputation of a Mediterranean country with a very rich grape vine and wine culture and preserved natural resources.
