The Trebbiano that Defies Time

The Trebbiano that Defies Time

altare marramiero

The Altare, Trebbiano Riserva Marramiero wine was born from an intuition that at the time seemed almost heretical: to believe in slow maturation for a Trebbiano.

An Abruzzese white wine aged in French oak barriques, where it remains for months interacting with the wood. This idea took shape in 1995, starting with its first harvest.

 

Today, over thirty years later, that decision has paved the way for a path that still surprises.

 

During Vinitaly 2016, Marramiero conducted a vertical tasting: vintages from 1995 to 2010, a journey into the wine’s memory. A rare opportunity to observe what happens when a white wine, with patience, remains true to itself while evolving through time.

 

Tasters spoke of a wine with great internal consistency. The aromatic persistence over time, and the ability to transform while maintaining its identity, are rare characteristics for an Italian white, especially for a Trebbiano.

Altare Trebbiano
Marramiero Reserve: the land, its great secret

Altare is born among the rows of vines in Rosciano, a small village in the province of Pescara, in Abruzzo, at the foot of the Gran Sasso and just a few kilometers from the Adriatic beaches. In this land of light and silence, time doesn’t rush: it matures. And it is in the heart of these vineyards that a Trebbiano Riserva takes shape, maturing in barrels and in soils rich with minerals and historical memory, while on the horizon, the silhouette of the Sleeping Beauty of Abruzzo can be seen.

 

Altare is the result of an idea carefully cultivated, one that chose the long path, the slow transformation, and all of this waiting is felt in the roundness of its first sip, which then extends with citrusy and spicy aromas, yet persistent.

Why choose a Reserve for a Trebbiano?

Altare is an Abruzzese white wine with a great winemaking and cultural history behind it. Traditionally, Trebbiano wine, despite being a respected DOC, has never been known for its fame, even in terms of food and wine pairings. Trebbiano d’Abruzzo has always existed within a niche of a few enthusiasts or older people nostalgic for the origins of their homeland.

 

With Altare, however, the path of Trebbiano is elevated, which is reflected in its name that perfectly matches its ambition. It becomes a symbol of the renewal and pride of white wines, especially those from Abruzzo. The white wine is now considered with the same dignity and winemaking dedication as a red wine, following in its footsteps and progress.

 

Altare is no longer the table white wine of our ancestors, but a Trebbiano Riserva that holds the highest place in our cellar, served at 10°C.
