TREBBIANO and OTHER WHITE
TROPICAL & RICH and MINERAL
BIODYNAMIC FARMING
WOMAN-MADE, NATURAL WINE, and COLLECTIBLE & CELLAR-WORTHY
ABRUZZO
ITALY

On par with some of the best white Burgundies, this is truly one of Italy's few classic and collectible white wines!

  • Winemaker: Emidio, Daniela, Sofia and Chiara Pepe
  • Farming: Biodynamic
  • Variety: Trebbiano Abruzzese  100%
  • Terroir: Sourced from 5 HA of Trebbiano vines planted in the early 1960s
  • Vinification: Hand harvested, crushed by foot (whole cluster) to get more attractive aromas. Finished in a basket press. Temperatures are low during fermentation and go into glass-lined concrete. Trebbiano is racked after malolactic fermentation and aged on its fine lees. 
  • Tasting Notes: Aromas of freshly-picked fenugreek, yellow apple skins, crushed kumquats, and white flowers are balanced by a bit of parmesan rind--a nod to the wine's slow aging. The palate is salty and rich with a powerful lash of crunchy minerality and lasting acidity on the finish.
