Retail $58. Very Heavy Bottle (763g; 1lb 10.9oz). Under cork. 100% Trebbiano. I feel like this is a familiar refrain, but I do not have a ton of experience with the wines of (fill in the blank, in this case Abruzzo) but that is because I do not spend enough time with my friend Jeremy Parzen (at least when it comes to Italian wine). Straw to yellow color in the glass with a wheelbarrow-full of citrus on the nose; bright and cherry, inviting one to dive right in. And I did. Tart, bright, even linear (yeah, a real wine geek term, I know) on the palate with plenty of that citrus to spar with all that acidity. Again, not a region that I know well, but this is gangbusters. 94 Points.
The best Trebbiano I had so far. Very fresh, with zingy energy, lemon, fennel and some vegetable notes. Not the most aromatic wine, but I really like the precision here. More Chablis than Meursault stylistically if you need a comparison from the Chardonnay world.
