Ciavolich, Trebbiano d’Abruzzo, Fosso Cancelli, 2022

Est. delivery in late summer, 2026 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo has spent years unfairly lumped in with the workhorse Trebbiano Toscano, and wines like this one from Ciavolich are doing a fine job of correcting that misunderstanding. Fosso Cancelli is the family's single-vineyard expression, grown on the hillside estate near Loreto Aprutino in Pescara province, and it drinks with a precision and energy that feels very different from the neutral, high-volume stuff Trebbiano's reputation has been saddled with. Think white peach, green apple, a touch of almond blossom, and a clean saline pull through the finish that speaks to the Adriatic's proximity and the limestone-rich soils beneath the vines. Chill it well, open it with something simple from the sea, and let it remind you why Abruzzo's best whites deserve far more attention than they get.
