FEATURES

Pizzutello nero is a fairly vigorous vine, known by numerous synonyms such as Pizzutello di Tivoli, Uva Cornetta, Damascus, etc.; its origin is believed to be Arab, possibly Syrian, introduced into Europe with the Arab invasions.
This grape variety, also called 'horns' due to the peculiar elongated shape of its berries, was already known in Roman times, so much so that it is mentioned by Pliny the Elder in his book 'Naturalis historia'.
