VCR Vivai Cooperativi Rauscedo
is an Italian cooperative wine nursery founded in 1933. It is the world’s leading wine nursery, selling 80,000,000 plants a year to vineyards all over the world.
Always at the forefront of innovation, VCR has been working on its own clonal selections for over 50 years, investing totally in the creation of new varieties resistant to the main cryptogamic diseases, with the constantly renewed aim of offering resistant varieties with irreproachable organoleptic qualities in the wines they produce.
VCR France, VCR’s French subsidiary, strives to continue VCR’s commitment to viticulture for French vineyards.
VCR has been involved as Vinifera associate partner since the beginning of the project, in closed link with the research unit of Prof Petrelunger at Udine University.
Every year, VCR partipates to the organisation of one unique Master class tasting of wines from grape varieties resistant to diseases during the M1 at Montpellier. VCR also provides Master thesis for M2 students in Italy.
