Trebbiano is one of the most widely planted varieties of grape in the world. It gives good yields, but tends to yield undistinguished wine. It can be fresh and fruity, but does not keep long. Its high acidity makes it important in
Cognac and
Armagnac productions. Also known as
Ugni blanc, in particular in France, it has many other names reflecting a family of local subtypes, particularly in Italy and France.
