This vine was introduced in the Volsini Mountains by the Etruscans, who had acquired it from the Greeks. It was known as “Liatico of Crete” for its early ripening and for use in the production of aromatic wine. Its presence in central Italy seems to date back to several centuries ago: in Tuscany De Crescenzi mentions it as early as 1300, in the description of “Livatica”, whose name derives from the synonyms “Liatico” or “Liatica.
