WOW: Wine of the Week

Another Newbie: Masciarelli Trebbiano

New to ShopUncorked.com but Trebbiano is actually the second most widely planted grape in the world!

Trebbiano is also known as "Ugni Blanc" in France and is most commonly used for Brandy production.  Secondly,  you will find this grape as a blending grape rarely even mentioned in Italian wines.  But not here!  Masciarelli brings to market a 100% Trebbiano.

This wine is the perfect transitional wine between hot Summer days giving way to Fall nights.  For just over $11 per bottle, you cannot afford to not try this fun little wine!

Product Description

"Since the very beginning, Masciarelli was focusing on the potentials of the native wine varieties speaking the language of his people: Montepulciano and Trebbiano. In Masciarelli productive philosophy a great importance is given to the land and to its wine culture and tradition. The main passion of Gianni is Abruzzo, an extraordinary region, with intense flavours, tastes and scents that you can find in all its typical products: from pasta to wine, from extra-virgin olive oil to cheese, from meat to saffron, from truffles to pastries, to ventricina salami, to confetti." - Winery Notes
