Variety obtained in 1845 by the Moreau-Robert company by crossing the frankenthal noir with the pinot blanc. It has not been propagated for a long time, which means that it is now in danger of disappearing. It is, however, listed in the Official Catalogue of Table Grape Varieties, list A1. - Synonym: Madeleine impériale, plant du caporal (all the synonyms of the grape varieties, click here!).

The wine region of Sicile

Sicily is the Southernmost region of Italy, and the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. For over 2500 years, Sicily (Sicilia in Italian) has been an important centre of Mediterranean viticulture, although the reputation and style of its wines have changed considerably over time. The island was once best known for its Sweet muscatels (see Pantelleria), and later for its fortified Marsala. Today, many of its best-known wines are Dry table wines produced under the regional designation IGT Terre Siciliane, or Sicilia DOC (see below).
