The white grape variety (also Geilweilerhof 30N-9-130) is a new cross between Silvaner x Müller-Thurgau, which was confirmed by DNA analyses carried out in 2012. The cross was made by the breeders Peter Morio (1887-1960), Bernhard Husfeld (1900-1970) and Gerhardt Alleweldt (1927-2005) at the Geilweilerhof in Siebeldingen-Pfalz. Plant variety protection was granted in 1979. With the same parents, the two new varieties Diana (1) and Mariensteiner were created. The variety is used as a winepress and table grape. However, no stocks were reported in 2016 (statistics Kym Anderson).
Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
