Whites with many faces: mineral and taut at Chablis (lemon, green apple, flint), opulent and buttery at Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet (hazelnut, brioche, yellow fruits), tense and chalky in Champagne (Blanc de Blancs). Also vinified sparkling and widely exported (Sonoma, Margaret River, Casablanca). A Burgundian variety, a cross of Pinot Noir × Gouais Blanc, half-sibling of Aligoté.
Abruzzo IGT (Pescara), clay-limestone hills between Apennines and Adriatic, temperate climate cooled by the sea. Liberal regulation from dry white to sparkling. Signature Montepulciano as ruling red: deep and fruity with black cherry, plum, blackberry, liquorice, herbs and spice, round tannins and meaty palate. White Pecorino star: taut and aromatic (pear, citrus, white flowers, salt).
