This vine has uncertain origins, in fact the opinions about its origins are mutually conflicting: some believe that it comes from Tyrol, others from Alsace, the Palatinate and Württemberg, others from Tramin in South Tyrol. What appears to be certain, however, is the fact that the origins of this variety lay in high- latitude areas.
In Italy, the leader regions in the cultivation of Traminer are Trentino Alto Adige and Friuli Venezia Giulia, where Traminer is excellently adapted to the soil, climate and the sun exposure.
