Famoso

Famoso

The Famoso grape - meaning "famous" in Italian - is a white grape variety from Emilia-Romagna that has recently experienced a revival after decades of neglect. Once forgotten, it has been rediscovered by passionate local producers who recognized its potential and unique aromatic qualities, reintroducing it to the region’s wine scene.

Historically, Famoso was prized for its intensely fragrant aromas, which made it a popular choice for table grapes, especially in local markets. However, its strong aromatic profile eventually fell out of favor, as winemakers shifted toward more neutral, commercially versatile varieties.

Today, the very trait that once led to its decline, its distinctive nose, is what is driving its renaissance. Winemakers are once again embracing Famoso for its expressive bouquet, and it is quickly gaining popularity among those seeking characterful, aromatic white wines.

The Famoso Grape produces wine of a pale straw yellow, sometimes with greenish reflections, intensely floral and fruity, with notes reminiscent of Moscato, including white flowers, tropical fruits, and citrus. In the palate the wines are fresh, vibrant, and aromatic, making it ideal for both still wines and semi-aromatic blends.

Currently we do not stock any wine made with Famoso but we suggest you to try those
