Reberger

The red grape variety (also Geilweilerhof. 86-2-60) is a new variety between Regent x Lemberger (Blaufränkisch). The cross was made in 1986 at the Institut für Rebenzüchtung Geilweilerhof (Siebeldingen/Pfalz) by the breeders Rudolf Eibach and Reinhard Töpfer; selection in 1991. Variety protection was granted in 2004. The vine is resistant to both types of mildew and is therefore considered a PIWI variety. It produces dark-coloured, full-bodied and tannin-rich red wines reminiscent of Blaufränkisch. In Germany, the variety is cultivated in the Palatinate and Rheinhessen regions. However, no stocks were reported in 2018 (D-STATIS).
