Trebbiano d’Abruzzo

Medium

Cork

White

A beguiling nose slowly reveals camomile and lemon balm underscored by earthier hints of bay leaf and hazelnut shells. Vertically fashioned, the palate is über-focused and bracing yet well-padded with succulent apricot. Chalky and saline accents lend intrigue, drawing out the tangy, tantalising finish. Tiberio’s Fonte Canale vineyard is a mere hectare or so, and the 90-plus-year-old, double pergola-trained vines are painfully low yielding, which makes for tiny quantities. By no means a substitute, the excellent value estate Trebbiano d’Abruzzo is more readily available and I often pour it as my house white.
