  • Verdiso stands among the myriad Italian grape varieties, distinguished by the verdant shade of its berries. While today it is primarily recognized as the companion grape to Glera in Prosecco production, centuries ago, Verdiso held sway as the more prominent of the duo.

  • Verdirà Grossa and Verdisse Zentil are not distinct biotypes, but rather manifestations of Verdiso adapted to diverse environmental conditions. These variations underscore Verdiso’s remarkable capacity to acclimate and thrive in different terroirs, enriching the viticultural landscape with its versatility and resilience.

Verdiso gracefully lends its character to a variety of Prosecco blends alongside Glera, imparting its unique essence to these celebrated wines. Additionally, it plays a pivotal role in crafting the luscious Torchiato di Fregona wines, crafted from meticulously air-dried grapes.

A standout Verdiso wine is a true masterpiece, boasting a vibrant profile that tantalizes the senses. Bursting with mouthwatering freshness and exhilarating crispness, it delights with a kaleidoscope of white flowers and green apple notes, underscored by subtle hints of ripe apricots lingering in the background. While not particularly complex or suited for extended aging, its allure lies in its immediate charm and refreshing character.

Verdiso offers versatility in winemaking, capable of producing both still and sparkling wines. Its high acidity, coupled with a lower alcohol content and invigorating fragrances, has propelled its popularity to new heights. As a result, there is a burgeoning trend of crafting monovarietal Verdiso bottlings, allowing enthusiasts to savor the pure essence of this captivating grape variety.
