Grape Feature: Pigato

Pigato is a white Italian grape only grown in the small region of Liguria. It's named for the rust color spots that kiss the skins before harvest.

It's believed to be a cousin of Laguria's famous white, Vermentino and have originated from Greece.

It produces an attractive, full bodied dry white wine with floral and peach characteristics.
