DE CHAUNAC Was originally labeled as Siebel 9549 and is a cross of Seibel 5163 and possibly Seibel 793. This French-American hybrid was later renamed De Chaunac after the Canadian enologist, Adhemar F. de Chaunac. At one time, it was the most planted hybrid in the cool vineyards of Canada as it is winter hardy to -15 F (approx. -26C). De Chaunac is known to have a very vigorous growth habit, good resistance to powdery mildew and downy mildew. De Chaunac yields a balanced and fruity wine of good quality, with generally low to mild tannin levels. |

EHRENFELSER (Riesling x Sylvaner) Is a white wine grape that is extremely frost resistant. Significant amounts of Ehrenfelser are found in the Okanagan region of British Columbia. Many consider Ehrenfelser as the best of the frost-resistant Riesling substitutes. It ripens slightly earlier than Riesling and grows in less ideal vineyard sites. Typically, it produces more fruit than its noble parent, given the same conditions. |
