This high yielding aroma variety is popular with growers, thanks to its resistance to disease. It has a good resistance to Verticillium Wilt and Downy Mildew and average resistance to Powdery Mildew. It is grown in the Hallertau, Spalt, Hersbruck and Baden-Bitburg-Rheinpfalz areas of Southern Germany.
