Score: 90Vintage 2021Vinous MediaA sweetly seductive mix of white flowers, candied lemon and cracked slate makes the 2021 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo Malandrino a total pleasure on the nose. It’s soothingly round, more like nectar than wine, yet with brilliant acidity and saline-mineral tones that balance. A salty flourish and nuance of tart green apple linger incredibly long, as the 2021 finishes crisp. So pretty.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review

Score: 88Vintage 2018Vinous MediaDusty florals, musky yellow apple and hints of raw almond lift up from the 2018 Trebbiano d’Abruzzo. It’s silky in texture, showing a balance of juicy acids and inner sweetness, with ripe orchard fruits complemented by zesty citrus. This finishes leaving a coating of minerals and hints of apricot.Shelf TalkerFull Page Review
