Segalin

Red wine grape · reported 2006–2023

Further reading: VIVC catalog entry

Ségalin is a French hybrid cross of Jurançon Noir and Blauer Portugieser, bred in the early twentieth century for reliable productivity rather than fine wine character. California's CDFA crush data run from 2006 through 2023, across four districts, with one notably large year crushing about 960 tons statewide before volumes fell back to near zero and reporting ceased after 2023. No bearing acreage was ever separately reported, and no growers or tech sheets are on file. Its California history reads as a brief, volatile crush presence rather than a lasting varietal planting.

What is published

Counts describe what this atlas holds for Segalin, not what California grows. A zero is a published answer: it means the source names the grape and reports nothing under it, or does not name it at all.
