This variety has very ancient origins, having been known since Roman times, and historically it was always cultivated in the hills of Soave until the 1980s, when the spread of international varieties unfortunately led to the uprooting of many of the local varieties.

Today, Balestri Varda is one of the few producers still cultivating this variety, and even fewer still vinifying it as a 100% monovarietal. Balestri Varda cherishes this powerful, earthy variety, and since its founding has produced excellent cuvées in classic Soave blends with Garganega. In 2016, after years of experimentation, they created "Libertate," a 100% Trebbiano di Soave vinified in stainless steel tanks and terracotta amphorae.
