Rossese Bianco is a grape from the Cinque Terre area in Liguria.
In Piemonte it is a DOC appellation since 2011: Langhe Rossese Bianco.
Liguria's vineyards are situated along the rugged coastline, often on steep terraced hillsides. The proximity to the sea influences its climate, creating a Mediterranean climate with mild winters and warm summers. The sea breezes help moderate temperatures, providing a favorable environment for grape cultivation.
