Situated in the heart of Italy, the enchanting region of Abruzzo cradles the often overshadowed, however, exceptionally vibrant and lush vineyards of Colli Aprutini. Famed for their refreshing, multi-layered quality, Colli Aprutini wines are from the gorgeous, hilly terrain nestled against the backdrop of the stately Apennine mountain range’s easternmost slopes, a region teeming with natural wonder and picturesque landscapes.
Although famed for their hearty red wines, the real treasure of the Colli Aprutini - a categorised Indicazione geografica tipica (IGT), is their stunning selection of aromatic white wines. Produced primarily with Trebbiano and Pecorino grapes, these white wines offer a delightful balance between minerality and bright, fruity notes - a true expression of the nutrient-rich soil from which they are grown. It is not uncommon to perceive fragrances of fresh citrus and blooming flowers in every glassful of Colli Aprutini wine.
Yet, what truly distinguishes Colli Aprutini wines, aside from their exquisite taste, is the winemakers' harmonious blending of tradition and innovation. Honouring age-old techniques but with a keen eye on the future, these winemakers have exemplified their adroit skill in each bottle. You'll find these wines are meticulously crafted, exuding depth, complexity, and an intriguing finish that leaves you longing for one more sip.
Moreover, the vineyards' close proximity to the Adriatic Sea combined with the towering mountains allow for a unique microclimate, ensuring robust grape growth, thus further enhancing the wine's flavour profile.
In summary, Colli Aprutini wines epitomise the rich, luscious qualities associated with Italian winemaking. They offer a truly authentic taste of Abruzzo that cannot be replicated anywhere else, making them an essential treat for wine gourmands seeking to explore and indulge in the hidden gems of Italian viticulture.
