Produced from the indigenous Trebbiano d'Abruzzo variety, it offers an elegant, structured expression with the capacity to gain volume, depth, and complexity through bottle aging.

95 Points - Vinous

The most inviting mix of lemon oils, musky pear and peach, raw almond, ginger, iodine and yellow flowers wafts up from the 2019 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo Vecchie Vigne. It's pliant, yet almost buoyant, seeming to hover across the palate with notes of apricot and salty mineral tones that are nicely offset by a pretty inner sweetness. The 2019 becomes perfumed throughout the saline-tinged finale, as inner florals slowly taper off. There's a density and balance here that should unfold beautifully over the course of the next decade.
