Grape: Trebbiano d'AbruzzeseVintage: 2018Type: White This white wine comes from the historic Loreto Aprutino estate, sourced entirely from the ancient Trebbiano d'Abruzzese biotype . Francesco Valentini rejects modern commercial styling, opting for a traditional low-intervention system in the vineyard and cellar. The hand-harvested grapes are fermented naturally with wild yeasts in large, ancient oak vats with zero chemical corrections. The wine matures for years in neutral casks before release, bypassing modern filtration to preserve its unique, texturally driven complexity. It displays a bright straw-gold color, releasing a reductive nose of flinty minerals, citrus rind, and dried flowers. The palate is concentrated and medium-to-full-bodied, showing a waxy mouthfeel balanced by a sharp beam of stony acidity. Deeply savory flavors of yellow apple and grapefruit zest fold into a unique undertone of roasted coffee bean. The texture is broad yet perfectly focused across the mid-palate. It finishes long, dry, and clean, leaving a mouthwatering saline trail. Show more
