In our country, the first varieties of grape-vines with known genetic origin, have been created since the sixth decade of the last century, and the outstanding achievements obtained in improving varieties were presented and published over the years, through many treatises. In general, the main objectives of the unitary genetic improvement of grapevine program were sought in obtaining varieties (table grapes, wine, seedless), that would be characterized by a higher production potential than the genitors and that would show greater resistance to pests and diseases specific to grapevines. Unfortunately, these new obtained varieties mostly are known neither nationally nor externally, only a few managed to get in and pass through this transition period, the border of the area where they were created. Although some of these are very valuable, both in terms of productivity and quality, in these circumstances, they will be doomed to anonymity. In this paper, we will refer to the five varieties of table grapes produced in our university - Muscat Timpuriu de Bucuresti, Augusta, Chasselas de Băneasa, Triumf and Select varieties classified in three different eras of maturation (early, middle, tardive). The productive and qualitative performances achieved by these varieties, expressed through carpometric values and organoleptic perspectives (yield, gluco-acidometric index, shape, color of skin, firmnes of flesh, particular flavor), can become attractive for vineyard in the south of Romania and can effectively contribute to fill the conveyor varietal of grape varieties for table grapes. Therefore, the promotion of these local creations, through various means, would be a win for both wine growers (producers) and consumers due to very high production potential, but also because of the particular organoleptic qualities that they posses.
