Source Lagrein FPS 01, from former Foothill Experiment Station, Jackson, California
Comments The original plant material for this selection was the vine at location G9 v1 at the former University of California Foothill Experiment Station in Jackson, California. Cuttings were taken from that vine in 1965 and brought to Foundation Plant Services. After successful completion of index testing, Lagrein 01 was planted in the old FPS foundation vineyard in 1967. In 1998, material from Lagrein 01 underwent microshoot tip tissue culture disease elimination therapy at FPS. After the new material successfully completed testing for the California Grapevine Registration & Certification Program, the new material was planted in the FPS Classic Foundation Vineyard in 2003 as Lagrein 03. Lagrein 03 successfully completed testing under the 2010 Protocol in 2011 and was planted in the Russell Ranch Foundation Vineyard as Lagrein 03.1.
