Trebbiano d’Abruzzo Superiore DOC

Despite the wide distribution of Trebbiano throughout Italy, Azienda Agricola Orlandi Contucci Ponno has tried to produce a wine that favors the most qualitative aspects of this grape variety. They wanted to respect the rules of the “Trebbiano Superiore” appellation, which requires careful care of the vineyard, a reduction in production and a selection of the best bunches of grapes in order to obtain vinification aimed at extracting aromas and flavors , often forgotten, of this traditional grape variety and which we find in this full-bodied wine with scents of flowers and fresh fruit.

Winemaking
A manual harvest of the grapes is carried out. They are harvested in two stages in order to have time to lower the harvesting temperatures, an essential condition for the extraction of certain varietal aromas. Then a gentle pressing takes place. 50% ferments and matures in 25HL wooden barrels and 50% in stainless steel at low temperature. It remains for a long time on the fine lees at a controlled temperature. Bottling is at the end of March.
