Native variety of Mallorca. Existing since ancient times. According to the latest DNA study, it may be a cross between the Beba variety and the Giró Ros, its cross with the Sabater variety would have given rise to the Mantonegro variety and its cross with the Fogoneu variety would have given rise to the Callet, Batista and Gafarró varieties, although these studies must be taken with caution.
Always known in Mallorca by the name of Callet de Cas Concos because it is located in the town of Cas Concos des Cavaller, in the south east of the island. When the government authorized it, it changed its traditional name and imposed the official name of Callet Negrella.
