Trebbiano

Trebbiano is a high-yielding white wine grape variety originating in the South-Eastern Mediterranean. Italy still has extensive plantings of the grape, though it has reduced in importance in recent years. It is also found in France, where it is known by the name of Ugni Blanc. Here, it is a major component in Armagnac and Cognac, spirits that benefit from both its high acidity and subtle flavours.

Modern revival in Italy

This high-yielding grape has received some poor press over the years, being responsible perhaps for too many anodyne Italian whites. However, a new wave of producers has been sweeping away the poorer clones and practices in favour of something far more respectable, and there are now some exciting Italian examples, often aged on their skins for a little extra complexity and texture.
