History Incrocio Bruni 54 is a grape variety that was born out of the innovative work of Professor Bruni, a world-renowned ampelographer based in Marche. The grape was first cultivated in 1936 during Bruni's tenure at the Ministry of Agriculture between 1930 and 1950.
It is an intersection of two grape varieties, Sauvignon and Verdicchio. Most commonly found in the Marche region, specifically between Ancona and Macerata, this grape owes its unique finesse and aromatic quality to its Sauvignon parentage.
