Dalkau

The white grape variety (also known as Beutelrebe) possibly originates from the Caucasus. It was allegedly introduced to Germany in 1945 by the owner of the Görz winery in Bad Kreuznach (Rhineland-Palatinate) from the Caucasus. It spread under the name Beutelrebe in the Nahe region. The variety was then selected by the breeder Georg Dalkowsky and approved under the current name in 1982. For a long time, the parentage was disputed, with assumptions including Riesling x Grüner Veltliner or a mutation of Riesling. According to DNA analyses conducted in 2013, it is a cross between Madeleine Angevine x Riesling. The late-ripening vine is resistant to winter frost. It produces an acidic, Riesling-like wine. The variety is cultivated in Germany in the Nahe and Rheinhessen regions. However, in 2016, no stock was reported (Kym Anderson). Images: Ursula Brühl, Doris Schneider, Julius Kühn Institute (JKI)
