- Negrara Veronese, an ancient grape variety initially documented by Pollini in 1824, has recently garnered attention for its close genetic relationship with another rare Veneto cultivar known as Gruaja.
- However, due to its rarity, no single estate possesses a substantial number of vines to produce a monovarietal wine in commercially viable quantities.
