| | Malvasia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Malvasia (also known as Malvazia or Malmsey) is a group of wine grape varieties grown in Italy (including Sicily, Lipari, and Sardinia), Corsica, the Iberian Peninsula, the Canary Islands, the island of Madeira, California, and Australia. | | | Presently, however, "Malvasia" generally refers to unfortified white table or desert wines produced from this grape, while "Malmsey" refers to a sweet variety of Madeira wine. | | | These grapes are used to produce white (and more rarely red) table wines, dessert wines, and fortified wines of the same name, or are sometimes used as part of a blend of grapes, such as in Vin Santo. |

| | Malvasia istriana (Vitis vinifera) is a domestic and widespread grape cultivar in the Istrian wine region that gives the characteristic white wine. | | | Malvasia istriana base wine (85 %) was blended with Chardonnay, Sauvignon blanc, Pinot blanc, Prosecco and Muscat, from grape varieties grown in the Istrian region. | | | In the ageing process, Malvasia istriana loses its aroma (freshness and fruitiness) and hence it is usually consumed as a young wine. |

| | 2003 Buckhorn Stables Malvasia Bianca at American Cellars Wine Club |
| | Today, Malvasia generally is thought of as an Italian variety, and it�s used to make a wide range of wines, from dry (often blended with Trebbiano) to off-dry (the preferred style among the cadre of California vintners who make it), to very sweet dessert wines. | | | The Malvasia name was derived from the Greek port of Monemvasia, through which the luscious dessert wines of the Middle Ages passed en route to western and northern Europe. | | | In Madeira, vintners typically used Malvasia for making extremely sweet, fortified, ageworthy wines that are golden in their youth and gradually turn amber over time. |
