The grapevine

Ansonica is the oldest native Sicilian vine and then spread to other Italian regions and in particular to Sardinia, Lazio and southern Tuscany.
The vine is very resistant even in fairly dry climates and has few leaves which means less water absorption is required.
The bunch is conical with two small clusters on the sides and the berry is ovoid with a pronounced yellow colour.
