Tempranillo Douro it is known as Tinta Roriz and mainly used in blends to make port wine. Tempranillo arrived in California bearing the name Valdepeñas, and it was grown in the Central Valley at the turn of the 20th century. Since the climate of the Central Valley was not ideal for the grape, it was used as a blending grape for jug wine. California has since started to use it for fine wines. In Texas, the soils of the High Plains and Hill Country have been compared to those of northern Spain. Tempranillo has been well received in Texas and has
Petite mutation petite negative mutants. Potentially, these yeasts have a different inheritance system in place for their mitchondrial genome than "S. cerevisiae" does. The frequency at which "S. castellii" spontaneously produces petites is similar to that of "S. cerevisiae", with the mitochondrial DNA of those petites being highly altered via deletion and rearrangement. Suppressive petites of "S. cerevisiae" are the most commonly observed spontaneously created mutants, whereas in "S. castellii," the most commonly observed spontaneous mutant is the neutral petite, further leading to speculation that the transference of this mutation differs between species. Petite mutation petite (ρ–) is a mutant first discovered
