Ripolo

The white grape variety originates from Italy. Synonyms are Ripala, Ripoli and Uva Ripola. According to DNA analyses carried out in 2005, it is related to the varieties Aglianicone, Falanghina Flegrea and Pallagrello Nero. However, the parentage is unknown. It yields white wines with aromas of apricots and honey. The variety is grown in small quantities in Campania (province of Salerno), where it is used in the DOC white wine Costa d'Amalfi. In 2016, one hectare of vineyard was designated (Kym Anderson statistics).

The glossary is a monumental achievement and one of the most important contributions to wine knowledge. Of all the encyclopaedias I use on the subject of wine, it is by far the most important. That was the case ten years ago and it hasn't changed since.
