A wee BloodyPulpit:
1. Manzoni: Or Incrocio Manzoni Bianco was a cross made by Prof.Manzoni of Riesling X PinotBianco. He created a whole family of crosses named after him, but ManzoniBianco is probably the most well-known. The best & most famous is the ElisabettaForadori Fontanasanta Manzoni Bianco. This is the first non-Foradori I've tried.
