Rotberger
Rotberger is a cross of Trollinger and Riesling grapes. Dr. Heinrich Birk produced the cross at the Geisenheim research institute in 1928. It is used to
produce fruity, early maturing light red wines in cool-climate areas. It is
often best drunk when young and can be used to produce a rosé or sparkling
wine. It has no relationship with the Rotburger variety bearing a nearly
similar name which is also known as Zweigelt.
