Brigantina grape represents a table variety of very early ripening, distinguished by large clusters of cylindro-conical or wide-conical shape weighing from 300 to 450 grams. The berries of this variety are large or medium-sized, round or egg-shaped, with dark red or pink coloring, weighing from 5 to 7 grams. The flesh is juicy and meaty, with a harmonious taste and musky aroma, although some assessments note that the taste may not be fully harmonious. The berry skin is of medium strength, which ensures medium transportability of the fruit. The berries contain 2-3 seeds.
The Brigantina variety is characterized by strong shoot growth and high yield; from one bush, you can gather from 8 to 9 kilograms of grapes. The buds wake up late, which helps avoid damage from frosts, and the ripening period falls approximately in early September. The leaves are large with moderate pubescence on the lower surface. The grape is moisture-loving and winter-hardy, making it suitable for cultivation in various climatic conditions.
Special attention deserves the variety's high resistance to diseases such as downy mildew, powdery mildew, gray rot, and anthracnose, as well as to pests. This significantly facilitates plant care and reduces the need for frequent application of chemical agents. Thanks to these qualities and good pollinability, Brigantina is a reliable choice for fruit orchards and vineyards, providing a stable and high-quality harvest.
