Also known as Listan, Horgazuela, Tempranilla, Palomina, Ojo de Liebra, Temprana, and Alban, its grapes are of medium size, tasty, and quite sweet, though by no means as good as table grapes; they are pale green in color but ripen to a translucent golden ochre under the sun, and are generally ready for picking during the first three weeks in September.
