Emidio Pepe – Trebbiano d’Abruzzo DOC 2022 Lot of 3 bottles of 0.75 L The 2022 Trebbiano d’Abruzzo from Emidio Pepe is one of the most distinctive and recognizable Italian whites, produced in Torano Nuovo, on the Teramo Hills, following an artisanal philosophy that the Pepe family has upheld for decades. For the winery, Trebbiano is an autochthonous variety capable of producing wines not only fresh in youth, but above all long-lived and able to evolve deeply over time. A unique winemaking method The wine is made from 100% Trebbiano d’Abruzzo, from grapes grown in organic farming. Harvest is exclusively manual, and one of the most fascinating aspects of the Pepe method concerns the vinification of white grapes: Trebbiano is still pressed with the feet today in a large wooden vat, working about 350 kg of grapes at a time for 40-45 minutes. According to the family, this continuous contact between skins and must helps extract substance, volume and aromas. Fermentation is spontaneous, with no selected yeasts or added enzymes, and traditionally takes place in cement vessels with vitrified surfaces. The wine is subsequently bottled without clarification and without filtration, preserving its character and original identity. The vintage 2022 The 2022 harvest was marked by a hot and dry summer, followed by decisive rainfall at the end of July and light precipitation in the following weeks. These conditions favored the final ripening phase and the balance of the grapes. The Trebbiano harvest began on September 5, 2022. The winery describes the wines of the vintage as particularly representative of the achieved climatic balance and the delicacy with which the grapes were transformed. In the glass it presents an intense straw yellow color. The aroma profile is characterized by fruit, floral and herbal nuances and distinctive almond notes, while on the palate it conveys freshness, structure and enveloping softness, with a persistent finish. The pronounced acidity and the production method also grant it notable potential for evolution in the bottle, a characteristic for which Emidio Pepe’s Trebbiano is especially appreciated.
