Terroir Notes: Trebbiano, an ancient grape variety from Abruzzo, produces an elegant and refined wine with exceptional aging potential. Its beautiful acidity, combined with aromatic balance, results in a sophisticated and layered profile. The nearby Gran Sasso Mountain creates significant temperature variations between day and night, enhancing flavor development. Meanwhile, the Adriatic Sea breezes impart a distinct mineral character and a delightful salinity, defining the unique essence of Emidio Pepe Trebbiano.

Winemaking Notes: Harvest is done by hand with strict grape selection; they pick in different phases to select bunches of grapes according to their ripening. Grapes are crushed in a wooden vat by foot. No additives or sulfites are added, and the must undergoes natural, indigenous yeast fermentation in glass-lined cement vats. After fermentation, the wine ages for roughly six months prior to being bottled. The Trebbiano is bottled by hand without filtering. Rosa Pepe, the family matriarch, decants and rebottles every single bottle in their cellars to take out the deposits which have formed naturally during the aging process.
