Description

Scheurebe Alte Reben , dry white wine from winery Hans Wirsching from Germany. Super Scheurebe we will say. Hans Wirsching is as a top winery from Franconia one of the best German winemakers of Scheurebe. Ordinary Scheurebe is fresh and fruity and above all tasty. This Scheurebe wine from old vines has enormous depth on top of that. Lychee, maracuja, citrus, soft and exciting. Top wine. From the 1st Lage Kronsberg . So white wine at premier cru level . In the well-known Bocksbeutel bottle.

  • Serving: 10 °C
  • Drink: now until 2029

Scheurebe, the German Sauvignon Blanc?

Scheurebe is somewhat similar to Sauvignon Blanc and also has those dashing aromas. But then mainly of tropical fruits such as grapefruit, passion fruit and also blackcurrants.

Scheurebe is named after Georg Scheu who developed Scheurebe in 1916 as a cross between Riesling and Silvaner* in the famous Landesanstalt für Rebenzüchtung in Alzey, Rheinhessen. Here he developed several new grape varieties that still build up enough sugars in a - then - cool climate. Other examples are Huxelrebe, Würzer (we have both of those too!) and Kanzler.

*After recent DNA analysis it turned out that it is not Silvaner but the so-called Bukettraube aka Silvaner Musqué. This is itself a cross between Silvaner and the red Trollinger. And Trollinger is also known as Vernatsch and Schiava in Alto Adige / Südtirol. Then you know!
