Ehrenfelser from Gehringer Brothers
Gehringer Brothers Ehrenfelser |
The Ehrenfelser grape is a white wine grape and was created by crossing a Riesling and Silvaner grape.
The Ehrenfelser grape is mostly grown in Germany.
From what I can understand, the Okanagan Valley here in British Columbia is the second largest growing area.
There are also some vineyards in Washington State that have some planted.
The Ehrenfelser grape gets its name from the "Burg Ehrenfels" located on the Rhine river in Germany.
Ehrenfelser has also been crossed with the Reichensteiner grape to create a grape called Ehrenbreitsteiner.
Ehrenfelser & Rock Cod with Parmigiano and Shrimp Topping |
We paired it with Rock Cod the other night and it was fantastic.
The other good thing with this wine: it will not brake the bank..... buy it by the case!
Anything less then a case in your cellar would be a pity.
Wine Makers Note:
This wine matches well with spiced foods, chicken, turkey, pasta and salads. Great as an aperitif as well."
Cheers,
Anders
