Information About

Traminer




It is the basis of the famous Vin Jaune of Jura, which can only be made from this grape. It is very late ripening, and may be picked as late as December .

In Alsace a pink-skinned variant known as Clevner d'Heiligenstein, '''Heiligensteiner Klevner''' or '''Savagnin Rosé''' exists.

Savagnin is very similar in looks to the rare white ''Traminer'' grape, which is a less perfumed version of Gewürztraminer .
