CURIOSITY OF PASSERINA VINE
Passerina is a vine of trebbiani family and it is considered native to the central-eastern Italy. It found its areal distribution in Marche region and, in other way, in Abruzzo and Romagna.
. Probably Passerina has this name for the little dimension of its grapes. It’s a vine with big leaf, medium bunch almost rare, consisting-winged, petiole very short; medium and large grape, a little bit dotted, yellowish at ripe.
HISTORY
In the 60s the viticulture becomes mixed viticulture and its diffusion was subject to a contraction in favor of Trebbiano Toscano, more productive vine but less value from the qualitative point of view. This vine has a good productivity and a good qualitative grapes level especially for the acidity component. The containment of productive could improve the level of sugar musts.
PRODUCTION
I can be made in purità or blended with the other vines. In the first case you can have a typical wine with a good aromatic intensity. Its richness in acidic component allows both sparkling with Charmat and classic method. The versatility of this grape variety has encouraged its introduction in the DOC "Offida" where, in addition to type "Sparkling" you can also find the "Holy Wine" and "Raisin", especially in Fermo area where it is also used for the production of "cooked wine".
Passerina, blended with Pecorino, has made a significant contribution to the improvement of quality of DOC "Colli Falerio Ascoli," which not long ago could only be produced with Trebbiano Toscano.
