Pepella

Pepella is a very rare grape variety cultivated only on the Amalfi Coast of Southern Italy. Although a few producers are looking to reintroduce the variety the remaining vines are old and low yielding. Used predominantly in blends with other local white grapes, it provides deep notes of honey, melon and peach. It looks to have the qualities suitable for making Passito style wines.
