Item # 37263 750 mL

One of the rare white wines you'll find in the landlocked state of Umbria smack dab in the middle of Italy. Trebbiano Spoletino is a unique variety local to Umbria and gives more body than other Trebbiano wines you may have tasted. This is lush, unoaked and is grown on clay and chalk-based soils. A fine match with monkfish, lobster or rich fish dishes. Or, will work with soft and hard, aged cheeses.

The clay and limestone soils in which these Trebbiano grapes grow helps to give a tingling minerality on the palate and persistent acidity, which in wine-speak is what helps the wine taste fresh and clean. After the crucial airing-out period, I get further notes of cypress leaves and gentle salinity.

Umbrian winemakers have worked tirelessly for the preservation of one of Italy’s least-known noble grapes, Sagrantino. Responsible for the eponymous Sagrantino di Montefalco as well as being a component of Rosso di Montefalco, Sagrantino has the power and structure of the biggest wines in Italy, yet still shows opulent fruit redolent of mixed wild berries.
