2023 "Vigna del Convento di Capestrano" Trebbiano d’Abruzzo DOC – Valle Reale – Abruzzo

Single Vineyard Wine

Origin

The Vigna del Convento di Capestrano comes from a historic vineyard near a former monastery in Capestrano in the Abruzzo region. Valle Reale is one of the most precise and terroir-driven producers in the region. The vines grow in high-altitude plots with limestone and gravel soils under a cool climate shaped by the Apennines, which promotes freshness, tension, and minerality.

Vinification

The grapes were selectively hand-picked and spontaneously fermented. The wine is aged reductively in stainless steel and partly on the lees to preserve clarity, structure, and expression of its origin.

Aroma and Taste

The nose reveals citrus, green apple, and white flowers, accompanied by fine herbal spice and mineral notes. On the palate, the wine is taut and precise, with lively acidity and saline minerality. The finish is clear, cool, and long-lasting.

Food Pairings

Ideal with fish, seafood, or light appetizers. Also suitable with Mediterranean dishes or vegetables. Serve at 8–10 °C.

Vintage Specifics in the Growing Region

The 2023 vintage in Abruzzo was balanced with cool nights, resulting in fresh, precise, and aromatically clear white wines.

Conclusion

The 2023 Vigna del Convento di Capestrano represents a mineral, precise, and elegant Trebbiano. With freshness, structure, and clear origin, it showcases the potential of Abruzzo.
