Marzemina Bianca

Marzemina Bianca has a large and elongated cluster with a medium-sized gold yellow berry.

Marzemina Bianca is an ancient vine variety and it is native of our region (Veneto); back in 1679 Giacomo Agostinetti wrote about Marzemina Bianca in his book “Cento e dieci ricordi che formano il buon fattore di Villa”.

This vine variety is cultivated in some areas of the region and it’s part of a project whose aim is recovering and preserving native vine varieties in Veneto.

Vitacchio’s Marzemina Bianca is cultivated in the DOC area of Breganze. After refermentation in autoclaves, it yields a sparkling wine with a fine and persistent perlage, a fruity and slightly aromatic bouquet, very pleasant to drink.
