The white grape variety (breeding no. Würzburg B 48-21-8) is a new breeding between Müller-Thurgau x Siegerrebe. It was cross-bred in 1948 by the breeder Dr. Hans Breider (1908-2000) at the Bavarian State Institute for Viticulture and Horticulture in Würzburg (Germany). By the way, the three new varieties Muscabona, Ortega and Thekla were created with the same parents. In 2016 no stocks were recorded (statistics Kym Anderson).

As honorary chairman of the Domäne Wachau, it is the easiest and quickest way for me to access the wein.plus encyclopaedia when I have questions. The certainty of receiving well-founded and up-to-date information here makes it an indispensable guide.
