'''Malverina''' is a grape variety used for making white wine. It was created in the former Czechoslovakia by a group called Vine Research Centre Resistant.<ref>[http://www.wineofczechrepublic.cz/ukaz_odrudu.php?id=37&lang=en Vine variety Malverina], accessed on October 16, 2011</ref> Malverina is a result of an inter-specific breeding "Rakish" (Villard Blanc × Roter Veltliner) × "Merlan" (Merlot x Seibel 13666). Its high resistance against both powdery and downy mildew makes it suitable for producing wines in limited-spray vineyards. Grapes ripen in mid-October. Malverina is grown in Moravia. High quality wines aged in bottles are full-bodied with distinctive cinnamon aroma and with long persistence.
