Malvasia is a family of grape varieties common in the Mediterranean region, cultivated in Italy, Croatia (on the Istrian peninsula), Spain, Portugal, France and Switzerland, as well as on the island of Madeira.

In different regions, Malvasia has different names:

In Italy, 18 varieties of malvasia are officially registered: from malvasia bianca to malvoisi in Valle d'Aosta. But not all varieties that are locally called malvasia are actually relatives.

Malvasia wines have always been very popular in Europe, especially in Italy. For example, almost all Venetian bars were called "Malvasias".
