Bacchus

The white grape variety is a new variety between (Silvaner x Riesling) x Müller-Thurgau, which was confirmed by DNA analyses carried out in 2012. Grando also originated from the same parents. The variety was named after the Greek god of wine, Bacchus. Synonyms are Bacchus Weiß, Frühe Scheurebe and GF. 33-29-133. The cross was made in 1933 by grower Peter Morio (1887-1960) and Bernhard Husfeld (1900-1970) at the Geilweilerhof Institute for Vine Breeding in Siebeldingen-Pfalz. Plant variety protection was granted in 1972. The variety was a crossing partner of the new varieties Birstaler Muskat, Calardis Musque, Geilweilerhof GA-48-12, Phoenix, Réselle, Sirius and Staufer.
