Codivarta is a distinctive grape variety celebrated for its complex aromatic and flavour profile. On the nose, wines made from Codivarta typically exhibit vibrant notes of ripe orchard fruits such as pear and quince, layered with subtle hints of white blossom, citrus zest, and a delicate minerality. The palate is marked by a harmonious balance of refreshing acidity and a supple, medium-bodied texture, culminating in a lingering finish with nuances of stone fruit and a faint almond undertone.
Predominantly grown in select microclimates of the southern Mediterranean, notably in coastal regions where warm days and cool nights enhance its aromatic expression, Codivarta thrives in limestone-rich soils that impart distinct minerality to the wines. Commonly vinified as a single varietal, Codivarta also features in premium blends, adding finesse and aromatic complexity.
Typical wine styles range from crisp, dry white wines that highlight its freshness, to subtly oaked expressions that introduce a creamy texture and enhanced spiciness. Codivarta pairs exceptionally well with seafood dishes—such as grilled sea bass or scallops—as well as poultry, lightly spiced Mediterranean cuisine, and soft-ripened cheeses, making it a versatile choice for refined gastronomic experiences.
