Würzer

The white grape variety is a new cross between Roter Traminer (Gewürztraminer) x Müller-Thurgau, which was confirmed by DNA analyses carried out in 2012. The cross was made in 1932 by Georg Scheu (1879-1949) at the Rebenzüchtungs-Anstalt Alzey (Rhineland-Palatinate). The two varieties Perle and Septimer originated from the same pair of parents. Variety protection was granted in 1978.

Characteristics

The early to medium-maturing, high-yielding vine is resistant to downy mildew, but sensitive to winter frost. It produces yellow to golden-green, spicy white wines with strongly perfumed notes. Due to its special aromatic characteristics, it is known as a bouquet variety.
