The Italian Bombino Bianco grape produces pleasant, relatively neutral white wines. Not spectacular, but quite pleasant and ideal for a Monday evening after a busy weekend. It's rare to find a bottle of Bombino Bianco for more than ten euros.
You'll find Bombino Bianco in various wine regions across Italy. For example, in Lazio, Emilia-Romagna, and Marche. But especially in Abruzzo and Puglia in southern Italy. In Abruzzo, it's causing considerable confusion. According to Italian wine law, Trebbiano d'Abruzzo DOC doesn't have to be made from the Trebbiano grape; instead, the juice of Bombino Bianco can be bottled. And this happens on a large scale. Italian wine law simply isn't very logical. Not a problem in this case, because the Bombino grape isn't as neutral in flavor as Trebbiano. In Puglia, Bombino has been nicknamed Pagadebit, because its high yield per hectare often allows winemakers to pay off their debts.
