The name of this variety comes from the fact that the clusters have very small berries full of concentrated flavour. This variety is popular in both Switzerland and the Aosta Valley, both of which claim paternity. Recent research shows that the original parent vine for this variety is native to the Aosta valley and known as the “Orious”.
