Garganega

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Garganega is a variety of white wine grape widely grown in the Veneto region of North East Italy.

It makes the base wine of the well-known "Soave" blend along with up to 30% of Trebbiano derived wine and is also a major portion of the popular "Gambellara" wine blend. At its best this grape will give a good, rather delicate, wine laden with aromatic hints of lemon and almonds.
