Discover the grape variety: Picolit blanc
A very old grape variety, probably already known to the Romans, and most certainly of Italian origin, from Friuli to be precise. The Hungarian Keknyelu is said to be the same variety, but this remains to be confirmed. It is almost unknown in France and even in the wine world, perhaps because of its low production and its sensitivity to various diseases. It should be noted that it is not related to the black picolit.
