With the backdrop of the Apennines to the west and cooling breezes coming off the Adriatic to the east, this unique microclimate 270 meters above sea level, does wonders in bringing out the nuanced aromatics in the grapes that are often unattainable by others. For more than a century, the Marramiero family has dedicated itself to the cultivation of indigenous vines such as Montepulciano and Trebbiano. “Altare” is a special parcel selection that is carefully hand harvested. Perfect Match: Garganelli with Funghi Trifolati!

2013 Marramiero Trebbiano d’Abruzzo Altare $30 bottle 100% Trebbiano Abruzzese “The 2013 vintage is striking. The wine has a beautiful golden color with flecks of yellow. The aromas jump out of the glass showing notes of yellow orchard fruits, pineapple, honey, peach, and saffron. Opulent in its mouth feel, the silky-sweet and palate saturating fruit is wrapped in spices and toasted oak. The finish lingers well after the last sip.” — Babbo's Sommelier Pick of the Month |
