Novaripa Dovizia Trebbiano d'Abruzzo 2020
Abruzzo, ItalyGrown in the pergola system, this trebbiano was crushed and left on skins for 8 hours while cold, then pressed off into barriques for fermentation and 6 months bâtonnage, after which it aged 1 year in concrete. Pouring a golden yellow hue, this full bodied white carries ripe melon, fragrant white peach, ripe pear, and perfumed spices along the finely creamy palate, finishing with lingering ginger spices. With grapes at full maturity (but not overripe) this is a well handled, expansive wine for the dinner table.Tasted: 02 November 2024Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $48.00 | 750ml | private wine stores |
