2021 Gazzetta Bianco Susanna
WINEMAKER: Trish Nelson
REGION: Lazio, IT
VARIETY: Procanico, Trebbiano
VITICULTURE: Organic
This Bianco is named after Susanna, Trish's sister, who is also the artist behind all the labels; these Procanico and Trebbiano were the first pick of 2021 Trilli's vintage, ten days maceration on skins then pressed into stainless steel tank. The result is a vibrant, low-alcohol and refreshing white.
After working with Cantina Giardino and Le Coste, Trish Nelson moved to a small cottage in Località Gazzetta on the hills above the village of Bolsena in Lazio’s north. She farms two hectares next to Lago di Bolsena, the largest volcanic lake in Europe, a unique microclimate in which her vineyard sits between the Mediterranean Sea and the Apennine Mountains. Trish works organically, using herbal teas made from local plants such as nettle, dandelion, willow and chamomile, and without any additions whatsoever, including sulphur. Pure and expressive.
