Additional Info:
ESTATE Founded by Abruzzo native Gianni Masciarelli in 1981, Masciarelli and its wines have become the standardbearer for the Abruzzo region, and an inspiration to all emerging Italian wine regions. After a summer in Champagne, Gianni Masciarelli became convinced that world-class wines could be produced in Abruzzo, and through tremendous vision and non-stop innovation, Masciarelli became one of the most admired wineries in Italy.
WINE Just as Masciarelli made a name for Abruzzo’s Montepulciano grape, they also elevated the quality and reputation of the Trebbiano grape. The particular Trebbiano in Abruzzo is a relative of the grape planted in many other areas of Italy, but in the climate and soils of Abruzzo when farmed for quality it produces a wine with fantastically expressive fruit and a gorgeous balance of round concentration and mineral freshness.
VINEYARD Location: 9 specific vineyards, at altitudes ranging from 435 to 1,200 feet. Soils: Mostly calcareous clay with alluvial sediments. Farming: Traditional pergola as well as high density spur cordon and single guyot; all hand-harvested and farmed sustainably
WINEMAKING Fermentation: After destemming a long, cool fermentation done entirely in stainless steel.
