Bacchus
Aside from being my Lord and savior, Bacchus is the name of a German white grape created from the crossing of Silvaner x Riesling x Muller-Thurgau varieties. It is a blending grape that is valued in Qba blends. I have yet to see it mentioned on any label and can only assume it is filler that quality wines do not possess. It is for some strange reason the fourth most planted grape in England, which speaks volumes concerning the quality it represents. Cheers. Sorry, no recommendations as of Sep. 2011.
