2018 Valentini Trebbiano d'Abruzzo
Description
WINEMAKER: Paolo Francesco Valentini
REGION: Abruzzo, IT
VARIETAL: Trebbiano
VITICULTURE: Organic
Abruzzo’s Edoardo Valentini was known as the "Lord of the Vines." An eccentric and often shy Italian, he crafted wines that are lavish, extroverted, brimming with character and a texture that is absolutely unique! He disregarded all modern conventions and hid his production techniques in a shroud of mystery until his passing in April 2006 at the age of 72.
Today Paolo Francesco, Edoardo’s talented son continues the wine making. He worked alongside his father for many years and adopted his techniques and a legacy that remain unchanged. In a region where quantity is so often chosen over quality, Valentini stand tallest amongst a small group doing it differently.
The wines display a startlingly natural character & their individual quirks only enhance their charm. They are unique & genuine wines, so telling of the land & hands they come from.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
