Coda di Cavallo Bianca

The white grape variety originates from Italy. The name means "horse's tail", which refers to the shape of the grape. Synonyms are Cavalla, Codacavallo and Latina. The parentage (parentage) is unknown. The early-maturing vine is moderately resistant to botrytis. It is mainly grown in the province of Napoli and on the island of Ischia in Campania and is mainly used as a blending partner. However, no stock was reported in 2016 (Kym Anderson statistics).
