Cococciola is a white grape variety typical of Abruzzo , specifically of the province of Chieti, with a vineyard area of ​​about 900 hectares. In the other provinces, in fact, it is less widespread. It is also present in some places in the north of Puglia.

Cococciola was used for a long time only as a blending wine for Trebbiano d'Abruzzo, to increase its acidity, but the grape variety has recently been the protagonist of a rediscovery and today it is also vinified alone.

Its marked acidity makes it particularly suitable for sparkling wine, both with the Classic method and with the Charmat method. 

This is a great alternative to Prosecco
