Attiki
N
Table grape variety.
The geographical origin of the variety is specified or, if this is not possible, the area in which it is traditionally cultivated. The genetic origin of the variety is also indicated whenever it is known from hybridiser data or from genetic analyses published or obtained by the teams at INRAE in Montpellier (UMR AGAP) and Vassal-Montpellier Grapevine Biological Resources Centre (CRB-Vigne).
This variety was obtained by Vassilis Mikos (Greece). Based on the genetic analyses carried out in Montpellier, it would result from the crossbreeding of Alphonse Lavallée and Black Monukka.
This information indicates the normal and statutory use for the grapes.
Table grape variety.
Name under which the variety is officially registered in the catalogue of grapevine varieties in France and under which it may be propagated and disseminated.
Attiki
Recognised alternative names that may be used to identify the propagation material of the variety in France or in other member countries of the European Union.
In Austria, Attiki is officially designated as "Attica". This synonym is officially recognized in France regarding plant propagation material.
This information indicates on which list the variety is registered (A or B), whether it is classified for wine grapes, and in which member countries of the European Union the variety is also officially registered (for more information, see the "Legislation" menu.
In France, Attiki is officially listed in the "Catalogue of vine varieties" on the A list. This variety is also listed in the catalogue of Austria.

Only the principal ampelographic elements enabling the varieties to be characterised and identified are provided. They are presented according to the descriptor code recognised by the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV), the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV), the Community Plant Variety Office (OCVV) and Bioversity International (for more information, see the "Ampelographic glossary" menu). The photographs of leaves and grapes were taken in natural conditions, on the vine, in very similar situations in terms of growing conditions (sandy soil, Mediterranean coast): - Domaine de l'Espiguette (IFV), Le Grau du Roi (Gard), - Domaine de Vassal (INRAE), Marseillan (Hérault), - La Gaillarde Campus (Institut Agro | Montpellier SupAgro), Montpellier (Hérault). Only a few photographs, including the tips of bunches, were taken in other conditions.
- the tip of the young shoot with a medium density of prostrate hairs,
- the green young leaves with bronze or reddish spots,
- the circular or pentagonal adult leaves, entire or with three lobes, a V-shaped petiole sinus, slightly open or closed, medium teeth with straight sides or one side concave and the other convex, a moderate anthocyanin coloration of veins, a moderately blistered, undulate near the petiole sinus leaf blade, and on the lower side of the leaves, no or very low density of erect and prostrate hairs,
- the obtuse ovoid berries, with a slightly depressed hilum.
Genetic profile
The genetic profile of the variety is provided for the 9 microsatellite markers (or SSR markers) selected under the European programme GrapeGen06 (http://www.eu-vitis.de/index.php) and by the OIV. The absolute size values of the alleles may vary slightly from one laboratory to another, but the relative differences between the two alleles of one single microsatellite are constant. The genetic analyses were conducted by the INRAE Montpellier team (UMR AGAP) and the IFV’s Plant Material Centre.

The data on suitability are the result of field observations or, if none are available, of bibliography mining and the study of bibliographic references.
Attiki has strong vigor and has a semi-erect to horizontal bearing. It must be trained and long pruned.
These remarks are also the result of field observations or, if none are available, of bibliography mining and study of bibliographic references.
Attiki is not very sensitive to grey rot.
The growth stages indicated are the result of obsrvations made at the Domaine de Vassal Estate where the set of these varieties form a collection. The results are indicated compared to the Chasselas vine variety as a reference in order to make comparisons between years and different sites. As such, for information purposes, the dates for the Chasselas B growth stage at Domaine de Vassal are as follows: - Bud burst, 21 March (average over 50 years) - Grape maturity, 14 August (average over 50 years)
Bud burst: 8 days before Chasselas.
Grape maturity: early-season, 1 week to 1 week and a half after Chasselas.
The size of grape clusters and berries indicated are based on the following scales: - Wine grape varieties Size : Very small Bunch (g) : ≤ 100 Berry (g) : 1 - Table grape varieties Bunch (g) : 150 Berry (g) : 2 - Wine grape varieties Size : Small Bunch (g) : 100 - 200 Berry (g) : 1,5 - 2 - Table grape varieties Bunch (g) : 150 - 250 Berry (g) : 2 - 3,5 - Wine grape varieties Size : Moderate Bunch (g) : 200 - 250 Berry (g) : 2 - 2,5 - Table grape varieties Bunch (g) : 250 - 400 Berry (g) : 3,5 - 5,5 - Wine grape varieties Size : Large Bunch (g) : 250 - 400 Berry (g) : 2,5 - 3,5 - Table grape varieties Bunch (g) : 400 - 700 Berry (g) : 5,5 - 8 - Wine grape varieties Size : Very large Bunch (g) : 400 Berry (g) : 3,5 - Table grape varieties Bunch (g) : 700 Berry (g) : 8 Remarks concerning the characteristics of the wines are generally based on tastings organised by juries of professionals.
Attiki's bunches are large, not very compact and the berries are medium in size. The skin is of moderate thickness and the pulp is firm. Attiki's berries are generally seedless. When the seeds are present, they are soft and not very noticeable. This variety has a simple flavor but has interesting gustatory qualities.
In this section, the list of certified clones is given. Information on clone conservatories is also provided.
