Boundary not captured yet (PGIs are not in the Eurac boundary data).
From the specification: The white semi-dry minimum acidity is misprinted ('Ελάχιστη 3.'), so it is left blank. The variety section lists rosé only as dry and semi-dry, though the description also covers a semi-sweet rosé. Maximum total acidity 7.5 g/l (7.0 for reds); white and rosé fermentation at no more than 20 °C; sweetening allowed for semi-dry and semi-sweet wines.
