The distinctive name is linked exclusively to the wasps, particularly fond of her delicious juice when the grapes come close to full maturity. It must be remembered that before Rovasenda (1877) and then the Marzotto (1925) emphasize the presence of other varieties such as Vespolina of Piedmont, the very rare Vespera of the Alexandrian and the hornet’s nest of Siena (also known as Uva crackles or Cortona), whose name is mainly, even exclusively, wasps and always for the same reason (the greedy delicious juice), making it at all formed from the Vespaiola. The production area includes the towns of Breganze, Fara Vicentino, Molvena and part of the town of Bassano del Grappa, Lugo di Vicenza, Montecchio Precalcino, Pianezze, Salcedo, Sandhurst, and Sarcedo Zugliano, all in the province of Vicenza.
