Huxelrebe

Huxelrebe is mainly grown in Germany but also found in England on less than 50 hectares Huxelrebe is a late ripening variety with high siugar levels that produces high yields. It is vigorous, requiring careful canopy management to ensure optimal ripening. Winemakers usually produce still wines or use it as a blending partner. In Germany, Huxelrebe is used to produce wines ranging from dry to sweet. The dry styles are light-bodied, with floral aromas and citrus fruit flavours. The sweet styles are richer, with more intense aromas and a balanced sweetness. Huxelrebe pairs well with light dishes such as seafood and white meats. Its light body and delicate aromas make it a good accompaniment to sushi and other Asian cuisines.
