Ehrenfelser is a white wine grape variety of German origin. It was created by Dr. Heinrich Birk (1898-1973) at the Geisenheim Grape Breeding Institute in 1929 by crossing the varieties Riesling and Silvaner with the identification of Silvaner being somewhat uncertain.Ehrenfelser is grown primarily in the Palatinate and Rheinhessen regions in Germany with some experimental plantings in Washington State.
