Originally from Thurgau, it was obtained by crossing Riesling Renano x Sylvaner thanks to the studies of Dr. Müller. The grape variety has spread thanks to its early maturation and high production mainly in Germany, Switzerland and Central Europe. In Italy it is expanding its presence especially in Trentino Alto Adige in the areas of higher altitude and cooler. Used exclusively for wine making, the wine obtained is green yellow, very fragrant, pleasant but delicate.
