Emidio Pepe Trebbiano d'Abruzzo 2010 DOC 0.75l

Emidio Pepe Trebbiano d'Abruzzo 2010 DOC 0.75l is a bottle that recounts a tradition of soil, work, and patience, encapsulated in a white wine of great personality. Produced by Emidio Pepe, a historic Abruzzo winery dedicated to the integrity of the terroir, the wine is made from native vineyards cultivated with practices that are attentive to the health of the vines and a careful manual harvest based on the vintage. The company's history is one of accumulated knowledge and a firm vision: a production process that favors spontaneous fermentation, rigorous control of inputs, and an aging process that avoids invasive interventions, relying on used oak barrels to guide evolution, complexity, and freshness over time. Compared to other producers of the same style, Emidio Pepe stands out for its coherence between agricultural discipline and expressive research: here, the raw materials are treated with absolute respect, yields are limited, and the transformation is slow, allowing the minerality, flavor, and aromatic clarity to flourish without forcing. The 2010 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo is described not only as a significant vintage, but as a milestone in the winery's portfolio of aperitifs: a wine capable of pairing with seafood, savory soups, and fresh cheeses, but also capable of engaging with a vertical tasting that reveals its evolution. On the palate, it is elegant and true to its name: vibrant acidity, a very delicate tannic canvas, a luminous finish, and a mineral sensation reminiscent of the pulverized rock of the Abruzzo terroir. The aromatic nuances unfold slowly: ripe citrus, Mediterranean herbs, a light toasted hazelnut, and hints of broom intertwine amidst a fresh profile and a nourished structure. On the finish, the wine aligns with the STELT positioning, offering refined tasting, restraint, and longevity—distinctive elements that make this wine a reliable addition to the portfolio and a benchmark for those seeking an authentic and enduring Trebbiano d'Abruzzo.
