Queen Elizabeth

The white grape variety is a new variety between Duke of Buccleugh x Ezeréves Magyarország Emléke (Millennium grape). Synonyms include Erzsébet Királyné Emléke, Erzsébet Szoeloe, Mathiász 165, Memory of Queen Elizabeth, Regina Elisabetta, and Souvenir de la Reine Elisabeth. The crossing was made by János Mathiász János (1838-1921) in 1870, who was a fervent admirer of the Austrian Empress Elisabeth (1837-1898). On the occasion of her 50th birthday in 1887, a wine was served from it called "Sisi" (ironically, she did not like wine at all).

Queen Elizabeth - Grape and Leaf

The variety was a crossing partner of the new variety Pölöskei Muskotály. It is mainly used as table grape. As a wine grape, it produces golden-yellow white wines with muscat flavor. The variety is cultivated at the Leopold Auer Leopold winery in the Austrian Kamptal. In 2016, no stock was reported (Statistics Kym Anderson Kym).
