Müller-Thurgau

Müller-Thurgau is a white type of vine cultivated in Germany, the remainder of the Europe, in New Zealand and with the the United States of America.

It was developed in 1882 by the Professor of Viticulture Hermann Müller (Thurgau) (* 1850; † 1927) with the Research institute of Enology in the area of Rheingau in Hesse.

In German-speaking Switzerland it is known under the name of Riesling X Sylvaner, in Luxembourg it is known under the name Rivaner. But it is probably of a crossing of Riesling and about a sowing of the Chasselas.
