Diana

The name of the Roman goddess of hunting, light and birth was given to three different grape varieties (Germany, Bulgaria, USA). In addition, Diana is also synonymous with the Tihany variety.

This white grape variety is a new variety (also Geilweilerhof 30N-8-127) between Silvaner x Müller-Thurgau. It was crossed by the breeders Peter Morio (1887-1960), Bernhard Husfeld (1900-1970) and Gerhardt Alleweldt (1927-2005) at Geilweilerhof. It was a crossing partner for the Regent variety.
