SANGIOVESE TAMANSKYI

Genetic Potential and Breeding Focus

The 'Sangiovese Tamansky' grape variety is the result of dedicated breeding work by KubSAU and Agrofirma 'Yuzhnaya'. The primary objective, led by Professor L.P. Troshin and his team, was to adapt the classic Italian genotype to the specific climatic conditions of the Taman Peninsula. Unlike its European ancestor, this variety demonstrates more consistent sugar accumulation (exceeding 20%), which is critical for producing high-quality must in the southern regions.

Technical Specifications and Agrobiological Profile

This variety falls into the universal category: it performs efficiently in both industrial viticulture and the fresh produce market. Its medium ripening period allows growers to manage harvest schedules flexibly, avoiding the intense heat stress of the late season.

• Sugar Content: High (>20%), ensuring robust alcoholic fermentation without the need for chaptalization.
• Usage: Technical and table potential. The dense berry structure allows the harvest to be used for wine production or for fresh consumption.
• Flavor Profile: Pronounced fruity notes, balanced acidity, and high extractability.

The practical value of 'Sangiovese Tamansky' lies in its zoning. The crop is optimized for the agro-ecological conditions of southern regions, which reduces cultivation risks compared to imported European seedlings. The consistency of vine maturation and high productivity under proper management make this variety an economically efficient choice for viticultural enterprises.
