One such indigenous red grape is Lagrein, which thrives on the gravely plains along the Adige where the wine achieves full, round, plush qualities with a bit of age. The growing demand for white wines has also influenced growers to plant more of the international premium varieties. The heights are favorable to aromatic whites: Sylvaner, Veltliner, Gewürztraminer, Müller Thurgau and white Moscato. But the quality of Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco and Grigio and Sauvignon from certain cellars can also stand with Italy's finest. Trentino's native Nosiola is another interesting, tasty dry white making a very recent appearance in the international marketplace.
