2021 Emidio Pepe Trebbiano d'Abruzzo Italy Claude Courtois where twin vines grow sideThe Trebbiano is foot trodden in wooden tubs for two reasons: in order to avoid contact between the iron presses and the acids of the fruit and also for the textural complexity resulting in the subtle maceration that happens when the trodden skins release their characteristics in to the juice. The resulting white wines are slightly golden hued, well balanced and complex, with hints of nuts, hay, and yellow fruits. Wine arrives late March, 2026.
