Trebbiano

Italy's most widely planted white grape. The reason for its popularity is the high yields it achieves throughout Italy. The grape also shows high resistance to diseases. There are 3 clones of the Trebbiano grape: Tuscan, Romagnolan and Giallo (yellow). Trebbiano is one of the two white grapes that may be used in Chianti, Malvasia being the other. Up to 10 percent Trebbiano can be used in Chianti's blend. Trebbiano is a major component in many wines, including Verdicchio-based wines. It appears most famously as Trebbiano d'Abruzzo DOC but also appears as Est!Est!!Est!!!

Known in France as Ugni Blanc, Trebbiano represents the largest family of Italian white grapes and counts a large number of variations throughout Italy. It is an extremely productive grape used to produce generally light, pale white wines. Its origins are widely debated.
