Phoenix

The white grape variety (also Geilweilerhof GA-49-22) is a new variety between Bacchus x Seyve-Villard 12-375 (Villard Blanc). The same parents also produced the new varieties Sirius and Staufer. The name comes from the famous mythological bird that burnt itself to death in order to rise anew and rejuvenated from the ashes.

Phoenix - Weintraube und Blatt

It contains genes from Vitis berlandieri, Vitis rupestris and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed by Dr Gerhardt Alleweldt (1927-2005) at the Geilweilerhof in Siebeldingen (Palatinate). Variety protection was granted in 1992.
