Minutolo

The white grape variety originates from Italy. Synonyms are Fiano Aromatico, Fiano della Valle d'Itria, Fiano di Puglia, Fiano di Salento, Fiano Minutolo, Fiore Mendillo, Greco Aromatico, Minutola, Moscatellina and Squaccianosa. According to DNA analyses carried out in 2001, Fiano Aromatico, which until then had been considered a variety of Fiano, is an independent variety and has therefore been renamed Minutolo. According to DNA analyses carried out in 2021, it is probably a natural cross between an unknown parent variety x Visparola. The medium-ripening vine produces white wines with a muscat tone of fresh grapes, herbs and citrus. The variety was saved from extinction in 2000 through new plantings. It is cultivated in Apulia, where it is permitted in the DOC wines Locorotondo and Martina Franca. However, no stocks were reported in 2016 (Kym Anderson statistics).
