It has a good vegetation and a constant production; the grape is of medium size, with a cylindric-pyramidal shape, and an evident wing. The acinus is on the average compact with an oval shape, while the skin has a characteristic brown dotting.; the juice has a colour yellow-greenish and a pleasant acidulous-sweet test. Once pressed with other kind of grapes, in recent years it is pressed alone and this make possible to get a wine very agreeable that deserve much more consideration compared to the past.
