With a name taken from the Swedish word for ‘encore’, Dakapo is a red wine grape variety bred in Germany in 1972 by crossing two other red grapes - Deckrot with Blauer Portugieser. Similar to its parents in appearance, this variety offers a high resistance to frost and fungal disease, as well as a deep red pigment that has proven popular for blending.
Parents: Blauer Portugieser
