Grape Variety

Verdeca

Producer

Paolo Leo

A local late-ripening variety that manages to keep its fresh acidity in Puglian heat. A medium lemon-yellow in appearance, it leads with medium-intensity notes of quince, lemon pith, aloe, lees, batter and flint. That fresh, medium-plus acidity comes through on a dry palate, followed by a medium extract, a soft texture, a medium body and a medium-plus length and the same persistence of lemon pith, quince, yellow plum, aloe and batter flavours, and a medium finish. 2026-2027–IR
