Marienstein

The white grape variety is a new breed between Silvaner x Müller-Thurgau according to 2013 conducted DNA. The parent variety listed in the breeding list, Rieslaner, has proven to be incorrect. The name is derived from the fortress Marienberg in Würzburg. By the way, the new breeds Diana (1) and Gloria also originated from the same parents. The crossing took place in 1951 by Dr. Hans Breider Hans (1908-2000) at the Bavarian State Institute for Viticulture in Würzburg, and the varietal protection was granted in 1971. It produces a yellow-green, delicately fruity wine with peach aroma. In 2016, three hectares of vineyard area were recorded (Statistics Kym Anderson Kym).
