Drinking Window: 2016 - 2017
From the hilly coastal region of Abruzzo, this Terre di Chieti is made from 100% Passerina, a variety that has a rounded character but retains a high-edged acidity. In the mouth it has a zesty lemon character layered over softer mandarin and orange notes. A gorgeous wine, especially for this price.
