The white grape variety comes from Italy. The parentage (parenthood) is unknown. The medium maturing vine is susceptible to botrytis and sensitive to late frost. The variety is cultivated in small quantities in Tuscany. In 2016, only 0.1 hectares of vineyard area was declared (statistics Kym Anderson).
