They are not, because the grape varieties that produced them are all from the vitis vinifera, and therefore they are "crossings". A hybrid is the result of mating two different families of grape varieties: i.e. vitis vinifera with a native grape variety. it would help if you corrected that. you describe Scheurebe, Müller Thurgau etc. as Hybrids.

This is definitely true. Scheurebe was developped by Dr Georg Sheu in 1916 and it has been proven in the late 1990s that Dr Sheu did not use Sylvaner (as previously thought) but more likely an unknown wild vine cultivar that has not been identified to this date. Thank you for catching that! j,
