Information about: Clonal Families, Selection Numbers and Registration Status
 
Molinera [01]
Registration Status Registered
Source California vineyard (Delano)
Comments This selection came to Foundation Plant Services in the early 1960's from a vineyard in Delano, California. The material underwent heat treatment at FPS for 64 days and was originally planted in the foundation vineyard in 1964 under the name Red Malaga (a synonym for Molinera). The name of the selection was changed to Molinera 01 in 2018 to reflect the preferred name for the cultivar.
