Discover the grape variety: Malvoisie de Lipari

A very old vine, said to have originated in Greece. It is found in Spain, including the Canary Islands, in Portugal, including Madeira, in Croatia, etc., and is virtually unknown in France. It should be noted that many varieties have the synonym "malvasia" and therefore confusion between them is always possible, such as vermentino or tourbat with the Malvasia of Lipari, whose grapes are however quite different. - Synonyms: malvasia fina, malvasia de Sitges, malvasia grossa, malvasio dubrovcka, greco di Gerace (for all the synonyms of the grape varieties, click here!)

The wine region of Vin de Pays

Vin de Pays (VDP), the French national equivalent of PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) at the European level, is a quality category of French wines, positioned between Vin de Table (VDT) and Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (AOC). This layer of the French appellation system was initially introduced in September 1968 by the INAO, the official appellation authority. It underwent several early revisions in the 1970s, followed by substantial changes in September 2000 and again in 2009, when all existing VDT titles were automatically registered with the European Union as PGI. Producers retain the choice of using either the VDP or PGI titles on their labels, or both - in the form "IGP-Vin de Pays".
