Discover the grape variety: Bombino blanc

This grape variety was originally cultivated in the south of Italy, in the region of Puglia to be precise. Today, it can be found in many other Italian wine regions, including Abruzzo, Lazio, Marche, Emilia-Romagna, etc. In France, it is almost unknown. It certainly has many relatives of Italian origin, known or less known, without us being able to cite them with certainty, especially since we find identical synonyms for them. However, we can affirm that the Trebbiano of Abruzzo is not the white Bombino and that the black Bombino is not related to the white.
