The red grape variety (breeding no. GF 67-198-) is an interspecific new variety between Diana (1) x Chambourcin. It contains genes from Vitis labrusca, Vitis lincecumii, Vitis rupestris and Vitis vinifera. The hybrid was crossed in 1967 by grower and later head of the Geilweilerhof Institute Dr Gerhardt Alleweldt (1927-2005) in Siebeldingen (Palatinate, Germany). Due to its favourable characteristics, the Regent variety was a parent of the new varieties Cabernet Blanc, Cabernet Colonjes, Cabertin, Calandro, Julius and Reberger.
