Trebbiano

Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
About the Producer:
A resolute old-timer,
Edoardo Valentini disregards all modern conventions. Little is
known about his operations. Rumors insist Eduardo is the sole proprietor
of a particularly brilliant clone of the local Trebbiano, which
here defies its long-held reputation for producing dreary, watery
whites. Furthermore, he fervently guards his production techniques
from outsiders. Valentini’s wines display a startling naturalness,
their tiny, individual flaws only enhancing their profound charm.
Taking years to develop their full profile, the wines often need
plenty of aeration to blow off the occasional hint of reduction.
This all falls perfectly in-step with one of Valentini’s
favorite lines, “Natura non facit saltus” or “Nature
doesn’t leap.”
