Siebenbürger Traminer

The name comes from the German advertisements of Dr. Alfred Ambrosi, placed after his emigration to Munich: they announced «Sortenweine aus Siebenbürgen» and, among them, «Traminer u. Mädchentraube». The pairing of the two varieties shows how Transylvanian wines were sold in Germany in the 1960s — by variety and by the old Saxon name — not by a year or a place. We have no bottle, no dated label and no tasting description; we therefore offer neither a vintage nor tasting notes. It remains a commercial name, documented in print.
