GRAPE VARIETIES

Grechetto

Grechetto is not one grape. It refers actually to 2 different grapes: Grechetto di Orvieto and Grechetto di Todi (which is also called Pignoletto). Can this be more confusing? Just remember that the grapes are found in Umbria and Emilia-Romagna.

Two of the best books about Italian grapes, where some of this information come from, are:
Native Grapes of Italy, by Ian d’Agata
Italian Wine Unplugged, by Steve Kim

Additionally, you can discover the other grapes from Emilia-Romagna.
