Heroldrebe is the marginal dark-berried german cross to which the prolific breeder August Herold of the Weinsberg in Württemberg put his name. This portugieser × lemberger cross yields regularly and prolifically, about 140 hl/ha (8 tons/acre), but ripens so late that it is suitable only for Germany’s warmer regions, particularly the Pfalz. Total plantings had fallen to 133 ha by 2012. It spawned dornfelder.
