Description

Trebianco is an energising orange wine from Tuscany, made from four different white varieties across a range of plots on the 100 ha biodynamic Rampolla estate.

The grapes are macerated on skins in terracotta amphora for 10 days, and then aged for a further 12 months in the same vessel. Bottled with no added sulphur.

Stonefruits galore, with some honeyed notes and a crunchy, skinsy finish.

93 Points - "An amber-orange color with aromas of bergamot, dried orange, clove, star anise, chamomile and seashell. It’s medium-bodied with bright acidity and a fine tannin structure. Savory, spicy and flavorful. Very well done. No sulfites added. Unfiltered. Drink now." - James Suckling

Trebianco can be defined as an “orange” wine. Those undaunted by the colour will discover a surprising, complex fruitiness. The Chardonnay, Traminer, Sauvignon Blanc and Malvasia grapes are left to ferment on skins for about 10 days in terracotta amphorae – a process which allows all the sun’s energy to be released into the wine - a sunny day in a glass.
