Piedirosso is an ancient, black-skinned grape variety found throughout Campania, Italy. It was very widely planted in the 19th Century following the phylloxera crisis, but has since suffered a decline. Today, the trend is slowly being reversed with producers returning to the grape, albeit predominantly as a blending partner for Aglianico and Olivella. Piedirosso means "red feet" in Italian, and is named as such because the stem is made up of three branches and is russet colored making the vine resemble a dove's foot. This also explains some of the variety's other names Palombina, meaning "little dove" and Pere'e Pallummo, meaning "dove's foot".
