The Kraljevina variety is distinguished by its strong and lush canopy, high and irregular yield. In Hrvatsko Zagorje it covers an area of 52.3 ha. It ripens in the third period and starts its growth cycle medium late to late, thus avoiding late spring frosts. It is not particularly susceptible to fungal diseases, except in wet years to Botrytis cinerea (grey mould). It is not resistant to low winter temperatures, and the resistance depends on the nutrition and condition of the vine and the time of occurrence of low temperatures during the dormancy period.
It gives extremely high yields, which should be taken into account when choosing to leave the crop load. It gives good results with mixed pruning. It is generally of mediocre quality, but in good locations and permeable and warm soils it gives good quality grapes. The sugar concentration is low to medium and the total acidity level is regularly high.
The wine is fresh and harmonious, with pleasant varietal aromas, bright yellow-green colour, suitable for blending. Kraljevina is distinguished by its high intra-varietal variability, so within the variety we can find different types that differ in colour and appearance of the skin, which generally also affects the quality of the wine, as well.
