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.
