| Müller-Thurgau is a variety of white grape also known as Rivaner and/or Riesling X Sylvaner (especially in Europe). It was created by Hermann Müller from the Swiss Canton of Thurgau in 1882, and is still used to make white wine in Germany, Austria, Northern Italy, England, in Australia and New Zealand. With around 42,000 hectares (104,000 acres) cultivated world-wide, Müller-Thurgau is the most successful newly-created varietal of the last 125 years. In 2007 the 125th anniversary is celebrated at the Geisenheim Grape Breeding Institute. |
