The white grape variety originates from Romania. Synonyms are Fehér Mustos, Königstraube, Lampar, Lampar Fardevany, Lampartner, Lampau, Lampor, Lampor Fehér, Mustafer, Mustos, Mustos Beli, Mustosfehér, Petolivan and Stafttraube. The name refers to the presumed origin of the Măderat vineyards in western Romania.

The parentage is unknown. It should not be confused with the Frâncușă (Mustoasă de Moldova) or Juhfark (Mustafer) varieties due to some identical synonyms or morphological similarities.
The late-maturing, high-yielding vine is susceptible to powdery mildew (Oidium) and downy mildew (Peronospora), but is resistant to botrytis and frost down to minus 18 °Celsius. It produces aromatic, highly acidic white wines with citrus flavours that are very suitable for sparkling wine and brandy production.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
