The variety is early-ripening and is characterized by low yield with vine resistance to diseases. Genetically, the variety is related to the Platani variety, however its exact origin remains unknown. It has been historically cultivated on the island of Santorini, and today it is considered an endangered variety.
The purpose of the variety is technical, for wine production. The wines possess medium body, high acidity, lack of tannins, and aromas of honey, lemon, and floral notes. Due to small cultivation areas, the variety is extremely rarely vinified separately, and is most often used in blends with other rare local varieties.
