Valle Reale Trebbiano d’Abruzzo

Trebbiano d’Abruzzo (Organic Grapes) DOC bottle image

Wine Description

Although the DOC rules for Trebbiano d'Abruzzo permit some of the highest yields in Italy (5.6 tons per acre), Valle Reale coaxes much less (4.4 tons per acre) from their Trebbiano vines for maximum concentration of aromas and flavors.  Valle Reale's Trebbiano d'Abruzzo is the product of certified Organic grapes which undergo spontaneous fermentation that is carried out by indigenous yeasts. All of this helps to create a wine that is truly unique and reflective of its terroir.

Acclaim
“The 2014 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo is a simple white wine from central Italy with dried fruit tones, citrus and limestone. The bouquet is subdued, neutral and is very reflective of the difficult 2014 growing conditions that resulted in thinner wines. Valle Reale farms organically and this may have made the soggy 2014 vintage even more challenging.”
