#652 Faberrebe

Faberrebe is a traditional style wine, elegant, and
fresh. With a finely aromatic bouquet, it is balanced
with racy tartaric acidity that will please the fruity
palate. - The prolific Rheinhessen grape breeder Georg Scheu crossed Weissburgunder with Müller-Thurgau in 1929 to produce this early-ripening white variety. With sufficient ripeness, this Faberrebe produces elegant, refreshing wines with a light Muscat tone and, usually, more acidity than Müller-Thurgau or Silvaner. The majority of plantings are in the Rheinhessen, Pfalz and Nahe regions.
