International Passport, the reality is different The existence of viticulture in Transylvania, a land of fairytale fortresses and Saxon fortified churches, is documented since ancient times. The Country of Wine (Weinland) or “The Land of Gold and Must” – as the Saxons called these lands – means more than perfect wines in the heart of Transylvania. The Wine Country is a millenary experience accumulated and kept from generation to generation so that today we can taste in a glass the <\/span>\u201e<\/span>story of a tradition”.<\/span><\/p>

<\/span>Grafting for replanting Europe<\/b><\/p>

The names of two families from Mediasene \u2013 Ambrosi and Caspari \u2013 are closely linked to the wine tradition of the area, as well as to the further development and modernization of this field by introducing scientific innovations in the cultivation and winemaking methods practiced by the Saxons for many centuries in the Tarnave Vineyard. Friedrich Caspari and Michael Ambrosi Jr. wrote an important page in the history of wine, contributing to the grafting of the vines used to replant Europe, after the phylloxera had deserted the vineyards. <\/span><\/p>

A royal meeting<\/b><\/p>

The representative variety of Pogdoria Tarnave \u2013 Feteasca Regala<\/em> – also known as Danasana<\/em>, Galbena de Ardeal<\/em> or Fetita<\/em>, Fetita de Ardeal<\/em>, was for the first time identified in Danes, Sibiu County, at about 45 km from Jidvei. It seems that the name of “Feteasca Regala” was given by the legendary producer michael Ambrosi Jr., after a visit of King Ferdinand in which he was impressed by ambrosi’s wine. At the Exhibition and Fair of Samples of the Romanian Industry, Bucharest \u2013 1921, the wine was tasted by His Majesty Ferdinand I himself, and in honor of His Majesty, the variety was namedFeteasca Regala<\/em>. The episode is narrated by the Economic Courier, a publication from Dej, in the issue of October 15, 1928. We reproduce it, respecting the spelling and the spelling of the time: <\/span>This grape variety and ‘got its name from there, that King Ferdinand at an agricultural exhibition tasted his wine, and was interested in the name. The attendants told her that “little girl”. Where he has risen so far, the king asked. In Transylvania. And so far she’s been the name of the little girl. Then let’s stay his name said the king. But Ambrosi the grower of this grape variety being omculant since starting he called “the emperor’s girl” this grape variety. Her original name is the emperor’s daughter from Danos. It is the middle variety between the little girl and the jardovany and in a lucky way meets the good qualities of both of them. <\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>

For a long time it was believed that Feteasca Regala<\/em> appeared as a result of the hybridization between the Feteasca Alba<\/em> and Grasa<\/em>, but, according to the latest data contained in the VIVC International Passport, Feteasca Regala<\/em> is the result of the natural hybridization between the Feteasca Alba<\/em> si Francusa<\/em>. The latest data from the VIVC catalog attest that Romania is the largest cultivator of Feteasca Regala<\/em> (12,216 ha), according to onvpv. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
