Madeleine x Angevine 7672

The white grape variety is a cross between Madeleine Angevine x Riesling (in the breeding list, Madeleine Angevine O.P. = open pollinated was indicated). The parentage was only revealed through DNA analyses conducted in 2019. Synonyms or breeding numbers include Alzey 7672 (this name is also used in sources), Madeleine Angevine x Unknown, S. 7672, and Seedling 7672. The variety was selected around 1930 by the vine breeder Justus Georg Scheu (1879-1949) at the State Institute for Vine Breeding in Alzey (Rheinhessen-Germany).

It is a purely female grape variety. The early ripening vine produces rather low-acid white wines with citrus aroma and subtle muscat tone. It was introduced to England in the late 1950s, where it was initially confused with the parent variety Madeleine Angevine. The variety is cultivated on 38 hectares in England and on 10 hectares in Canada. In 2016, a total of 48 hectares of vineyard area were reported (Statistics Kym Anderson).
