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.
IGT of Abruzzo, kingdom of Italian value for money. Signature Montepulciano d'Abruzzo: fleshy, accessible reds with notes of ripe black cherry, plum, Mediterranean herbs and sweet spices, supple tannins and a moreish palate — an everyday wine. Trebbiano d'Abruzzo as fresh white. Native Pecorino in full revival: lively and mineral with citrus and white flowers.
