Verdeca is a relatively rare white-wine grape variety from southern Italy, now found almost exclusively in the Taranto and Bari provinces of central Puglia. Its wines can range from quite neutral and herbal, though to more aromatic wines with mixed citrus flavors. It is all-too-easily confused with the similarly named Verdea, an equally rare variety from Tuscany.
Although once a mainstay of Vermouth production (which declined to almost nothing in the 20th Century), Verdeca is now used in blended and varietal wines in various parts of Puglia. Its most notable use is arguably in the Salento peninsulas Martina Franca and Locorotondo wines, in which it is blended with Bianco d Alessano. Further north, in Campania, Verdeca figures in the Lacryma Christi (tears of Christ) wines produced from the slopes of Mount Vesuvius.
