| Comments |
The original material for this selection came to Foundation Plant Services in the mid-1960's from the vineyard of the University of California, Department of Viticulture & Enology (locations D5:1-2 and then I(eye)76 v5). When the original material came to FPS, it was subjected to heat treatment for 146 days and was given the name Tannat 01. In 2005, the Tannat 01 vines in the foundation vineyard tested positive for leafroll virus and were removed from the vineyard. Tannat 01 underwent microshoot tip tissue culture disease elimination therapy in 2007. The treated material successfully completed testing to qualify it for the Russell Ranch Foundation Vineyard, where it was planted in 2011 as Tannat 01.1. |
