An autochthonous Italian grape variety that was cultivated for a very long time, particularly in the Venice region, where it almost disappeared. It seems to be known only in this region and therefore completely unknown in all other wine-producing countries. According to recently published A.D.N. analyses, it is the result of a natural intraspecific cross between Garganega and Tuscan malvasia or malvasia del chianti, which explains why it has long been confused with its mother, Garganega.
