Amorotti 2022 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo

While Amorotti's first official vintage was 2016, they have been a winemaking family for over a century. While they still sell grapes in bulk, they save the best selections for their own label. The vines are certified organic and wine is spontaneously fermented.

The Trebbiano is fermented and then aged in large untoasted Slavonian oak barrels for 1 year. Every vintage I've had of this wine shows a toasted sesame note and the 2022 is no exception. Hay, dried herbs, and yellow plums abound with lovely tension and acidity.
