Discover the grape variety: Scheurebe

German grape variety obtained in 1916 by Georg Shere (1879/1949).

The Scheurebe can be found in Austria, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Italy, Slovenia, Great Britain, the United States (California, Virginia, ...), Canada (Ontario, British Columbia, ...), ... practically unknown in France.
