Tocco Capostazione Passerina 2020

Abruzzo, ItalyTocco was founded in 1981 by Enisio Tocco, in the hills of Pescara, in Alanno, on the Adriatic coast. His sons Lorenzo and Danilo joined him in 2014 after studying and working abroad. Their 34 hectares (half dedicated to vines) is certified organic. This passerina was pergola trained, and native fermented and rested in stainless. Peach and apricot fill the bright palate, lit with grapefruit, and kissed with anise, finishing with a lingering white pepper note. Quite charming, and a welcome, unique white to pour alongside salads, shellfish, and green risotto.Tasted: 16 December 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
