Description
What kind of wine it is
Marina Cvetic Trebbiano Riserva by Masciarelli is a still white wine of remarkable structure. Produced from Trebbiano Toscano grapes, it displays an intense golden colour and significant body. The bouquet is characterised by an elegant boisé touch, followed by notes of broom, sweet citrus, winter melon, fresh hazelnut and white pepper. On the palate, it is full and fresh, with a creamy and perfectly balanced texture, finishing with persistent mineral and iodised accents.
Where it comes from
The grapes grow in the heart of the Trebbiano d’Abruzzo Riserva area, in the vineyards of San Martino sulla Marrucina. The rows cover the Teatine hills at the foot of the Maiella and the Bucchianico area, known for its distinctive badlands. The unique geology of these soils defines the character of the wine, bringing a savoury structure to the glass that gives volume and depth, while always maintaining a balanced sip.
How it is produced
Harvesting takes place in the second half of October from vines trained in the Abruzzo pergola style. The must ferments in wood for a period ranging from fifteen to thirty days, encouraging a solid integration of aromas. The wine then matures for twelve months in oak barrels, enriching its aromatic profile without masking the expression of the grape variety, and completes its journey with a year of bottle ageing to achieve perfect harmony.
History and Curiosities
Founded in Abruzzo in 1981, the Masciarelli winery produces wines with a distinctive character. From the deep bond between Gianni and Marina, the prestigious Marina Cvetic line was born in 1991, created to satisfy the most discerning palates. This collection masterfully combines international varieties with great local classics, offering elegant and unconventional interpretations. The Trebbiano d’Abruzzo DOC Riserva 2023 perfectly embodies this production vision: a qualitative triumph crowned by the highest accolade of the 3 Glasses from Gambero Rosso.
