The coast of Abruzzo has become home to some of Italy’s iconic wines and there are a couple of grape varieties that thrive there. One of these such grapes is the humble Trebbiano, which, across Italy, is often a bit of an afterthought. That is, except in Abruzzo. Here, on this sunny part of Italy’s Adriatic coastline, Trebbiano ripens to produce wines with mature green fruit characteristics, dried herbal undertones, a silky, round mouthfeel and a bit of salty seawater on the finish. Amoterra produces an organic Trebbiano Abruzzo that is as ripe as it is fresh. Golden hues of apple, pear, and ripe lemon play with dried basil and a mineral finish.
