Collection: Grape Varieties - White Grapes - Ugni Blanc
Ugni Blanc, known as Trebbiano in Italy, is a versatile white grape variety widely planted across France and Italy, cherished for its high acidity and ability to produce crisp, refreshing wines. This grape is most famously used in the production of Cognac and Armagnac, where its acidic profile is ideal for distillation, but it also makes delightful still wines, characterized by light, floral, and citrus notes, with a lean, mineral edge. Hay Wines has tapped into the potential of Ugni Blanc for still wine production, importing and offering selections that showcase the grape's refreshing simplicity and elegance. Their Ugni Blanc wines, sourced from top vineyards, highlight the variety's adaptability and the nuanced expressions it can achieve outside of its traditional roles, providing UK wine lovers with a crisp, invigorating wine experience that's perfect for sipping on a warm day.
