I added this to the grape varieties category hoping that someone who knows about wine will notice it. I saw it on the list of pages that need wikified, which is the only reason I looked at it. It appears that this may not be a grape variety but a wine - made from the refosco graoe? Also, it looks like it may be the same thing as canaiolo, because just cagnini redirects there. In any case the external link doesn't appear to go anywhere that mentions this wine. I'm hoping someone who knows about wine will either fix or delete this page.

There is an obscure grape variety called Cagnina: [1] I say obscure, because it only has one single holding institution, which has not even bothered to put in basic ampelographic information in this database, and which has no known synonyms. Cagnina di Romagna gives no hits in this database, so I don't think that Cagnina and Cagnina di Romagna are identical. It could be a designation rather than a grape variety.

It turned out to be a DOC for Cagnina which is a synonym of Terrano. Actually, most of the "XX di YY" designations of Italy are DOCs for variety (synonym) XX from the region/area YY. Tomas e (talk) 14:12, 23 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
