Vespolina is a red wine variety that has its home in Piedmont , Italy . It is mostly used in a blend with the Nebbiolo variety to reduce its impact. The proportion of waste is usually between 15 and 40%.
It is used in the DOCG wines Gattinara and Ghemme as well as in the DOC wines Boca , Bramaterra , Colline Novaresi , Coste della Sesia , Fara , Lessona and Sizzano . In the Colline Novaresi area, it is even grown single-variety.
The grape variety is bred and maintained by the Institut Nucleo di Premotiplicazione Viticola del piemonte Ce.Pre.Ma.Vi , Turin . The variety was first mentioned in writing on November 3, 1798 in a report by Conte Nuvolone.
In early 2004 it became known that the Nebbiolo variety is related to the Freisa variety. The researchers Anna Schneider from the Agricultural Institute of the CNR in Turin and José Vouillamoz ( University of California, Davis and “Istituto agrario di San Michele all'Adige”, today Fondazione Edmund Mach in San Michele all'Adige ) carried out molecular-biological DNA analyzes 1500 grape varieties through.
The same investigation suggests that the Italian Freisa variety is itself derived from the Viognier variety . Freisa is also related to the varieties Nebbiolo Rosé, Negrera , Rossola , Vespolina and Bubbierasco .
