More information on of Delle Venezie flavors

Delle Venezie, is one of Italy's best-known wine appellations, made famous by the huge quantities of crisp, light Pinot Grigio delle Venezie shipped to the UK and US from northeastern Italy each year. In 2017, the name was transferred to a New DOC in the same area, and the IGT changed its name to Trevenezie. The former IGT delle Venezie white wines could very well end up in either appellation. The grape varieties used or the style of wine may dictate how the wines will be labeled from 2017.

The change could also depend on whether producers are able or willing to reduce yields or comply with DOC rules. During the transition period, users can find IGT and DOC wines in the delle Venezie region category. The Venezia of the title is not Venice, the historic city of canals, islands and bridges. The Tre Venezie ("three Venezias", alternatively Triveneto) are Venezia Euganea, Venezia Giulia and Venezia Tridentina.
