Valle Reale - 2021 - Vigna del Convento di Capestrano - 750 ml.

Subregion: Capestrano

Valle Reale’s Vigna del Convento di Capestrano is a single-vineyard Trebbiano d'Abruzzo from the Convento di Capestrano site in Abruzzo, crafted in a biodynamic spirit and finished in stainless steel for precision and purity. This bottling represents a contemporary expression of Trebbiano d'Abruzzo—light on overt oak and heavy on saline-mineral drive, bright citrus, and a sapid mid-palate. Expect a focused nose of lemon peel, green apple, white flowers and subtle herbal uplift, leading to a palate that emphasizes energy and freshness rather than oak-derived weight. The stainless-steel maturation preserves the varietal’s vibrant acidity while biodynamic farming and single-vineyard selection concentrate terroir expression and clarity. For those seeking a refined, food-friendly white from Italy outside the typical international crowd, this Valle Reale single-vineyard wine is a distinct choice. It pairs seamlessly with raw seafood, grilled fish, white meats and fresh salads—dishes that benefit from crisp acid and saline tension. The wine’s balanced structure and clarity make it versatile for both early enjoyment and short to medium-term cellaring. Vigna del Convento di Capestrano is recommended for collectors and cooks who appreciate an energetic, terroir-driven Trebbiano that reads as elegant and direct rather than oaky or buttery. This is a wine for moments when freshness, mineral precision and sustainable farming matter: a boutique, carefully produced expression of Abruzzo’s potential.
