Montù

The white grape variety originates from Italy. Synonyms are Bianchetto, Bianchetto Faentino, Bianchina, Bianchino, Montoncello, Montonegro Bianco, Montuni and Montuno.

Montù - Traube und Blatt

Parentage

The ancestry (parentage) is unknown. According to DNA analyses, there is no (previously suspected) genetic relationship with the Montonico Bianco variety, with which it is often confused.

Characteristics

The very late-maturing, high-yielding vine is highly resistant to powdery mildew and moderately resistant to downy mildew and botrytis, but sensitive to spider mites. It produces fresh, straw-coloured white wines with a moderate acidity structure, which are also excellent for sparkling wine production.
