Freisa

Red Grape.

Medium bodied red winegrape from the Piedmont region of Italy. Freisa's origin dates back to 1799 in Piedmont. The red Freisa grape must be aged for 2 years before bottling. It often produces frizzante, highly acidic, pale cherry red wines, but could range from still to frizzante and dry to sweet. There are two slightly different clones of Freisa. Freisa Piccola grows usually on the hills and Freisa Grossa grows better on flatter surfaces. It is also called Fresa and Fresia.
