Valle Reale Trebbiano d'Abruzzo Vigna del Convento di Capestrano 2021

Valle Reale’s Trebbiano d’Abruzzo Vigna del Convento di Capestrano is a beautifully focused white wine that captures the purity and character of Abruzzo. Crafted with a biodynamic philosophy and a deep respect for terroir, it stands out for its lifted aromatics, mineral drive, and regional authenticity — a modern expression of one of central Italy’s most historic white grapes.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a bright straw-yellow colour with elegant golden-green highlights. The nose is expressive and layered, with aromatic herbs leading into notes of yellow rose, white wisteria, freesia, lemon zest, Annurca apple, white mulberry, and a subtle touch of white pepper, all framed by a delicate mineral tone. The palate is well balanced and vibrant, with a lively, mouthwatering acidity that gives the wine real definition and energy. Its aromatic complexity continues to unfold as it opens in the glass, while the finish is long and persistent, marked by a clean mineral edge. This is a wine that can be enjoyed now for its freshness and precision, but it also has the structure to develop gracefully over the next few years.

Production
The Vigna del Convento di Capestrano vineyards lie between 350 and 400 metres above sea level on rich, stony soils with a moderate clay content, conditions that help preserve freshness while adding depth and texture. The biodynamic approach reflects Valle Reale’s commitment to working in harmony with the land, with careful vineyard management designed to express the site as clearly as possible. After harvesting, the wine is aged for six months in stainless steel, a choice that preserves the purity of the fruit and the clarity of the grape’s natural aromatics. The result is a precise, terroir-driven Trebbiano with impressive tension and definition.

Food & Serving
This Trebbiano pairs naturally with seafood, grilled white fish, shellfish, risotto with herbs, light pasta dishes, and vegetable-based antipasti. It also works well with mild cheeses and Mediterranean cuisine. Serve chilled, ideally around 8-10°C, and there is no need to decant unless you want to let the wine open further in the glass.

Producer
Valle Reale is one of Abruzzo’s most respected producers, known for championing biodynamic farming and for its clear focus on expressing the region’s mountainous inland terroir. The winery has built a strong reputation for wines of precision, freshness, and depth, particularly through site-specific bottlings such as Vigna del Convento di Capestrano. Its work has helped raise the profile of Trebbiano d’Abruzzo as a grape capable of far more nuance and complexity than many expect.
