Cantina Frentana, Abruzzo producer page

Trebbiano from the Abruzzo, which can be made from any member of the Trebbiano family within the Abruzzo DOC area.  The Sangro growers prefer Trebbiano Toscano; their vines are trained on high pergolas that follow the river Sangro, along  north and northeast facing slopes.  The vines have a perfect average age of 15 years, and thanks to the rapid drop in altitude from mountain to sea, the vines enjoy constant, and refreshing breezes. 

2022 was a hot vintage, the harvest was a little smaller than usual; healthy grapes with good concentration.  The bunches were hand-picked in the second half of September, de-stemmed, soft-pressed, then fermented using selected yeasts in temperature-controlled tanks.  Malolactic* was blocked and the wine aged in steel tanks for at least 3 months.  Winemaker Gianni Pasquale looks to bottle joyous simplicity.
