A variety probably best known (or should that be notorious) for its extensive growing and use in Germany for the production of Liebfraumilch; if Liebfraumilch is not a wine for you, don't let that put you off In the UK it is widely grown in UK commercial vineyards, including the Leeds Castle Vineyard where it results in a most agreeable wine.

The fruits are a golden-green colour and very sweet and juicy (some describe them as filled with "oceans of sugar water") - making them a very pleasant eating grape as well as for juicing and wine.

• Mid-Season fruit ripening.

• Can be trained using either the cane replacement method or spur pruning.
• Self fertile.
