Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden colour, a supple palate with moderate acidity, and understated aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Preserved in a few ampelographic collections for its heritage value, it belongs to the group of ancient varieties that have virtually disappeared from commercial production. A rare white grape variety, poorly documented, grown in negligible quantities.
