Emidio Pepe's Trebbiano d'Abruzzo is a small oenological gem that exhibits variety and breadth, qualities that make this wine a unique example of biodynamic viticulture. The land at the foot of the Gran Sasso is something special: the significant temperature range between day and night stresses the grapes enough to make them release intense and unique aromas, and the proximity to the Adriatic Sea brings that mineral and savoury tone making the drinking experience satisfying and memorable. Scents, salinity and freshness are the three main characteristics of Emidio Pepe's Trebbiano d'Abruzzo, who wanted and was able to transfer biodynamic agriculture to his vineyards, combining the experience of the great producer that he is with modern production techniques.
Pepe Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is produced with pure grapes of the homonymous variety, coming from 30 years old vines standing on clayey and medium texture soil. In the vineyard are scrupulously followed the dictates of organic farming integrating them with some biodynamic practices, although the idea of grapes and healthy soil was already rooted in Emidio's mentality.
In the winery, manual destemming of the grapes and spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in vitrified cement tanks followed by bottling and decanting by hand without filtration. The liquid ages 24 months in cement tanks.
Barolo Ornato Pio Cesare is the bottle in the company's range dedicated to enthusiasts who love the austere and profound character of the great Barolo wines of the Serralunga d'Alba area. It is a wine that can be drunk immediately, but improves if allowed to reach full expressive maturity after a few years of ageing in the cellar. It is ruby red in colour with garnet highlights. Elegant and complex, it expresses aromas of aromatic herbs, balsamic nuances, aromas of small red berries, underbrush, slightly spicy and mineral sensations. Structured and intense, it is characterised by a dense tannic texture and an austere and long sip, which stretches straight and severe towards a very persistent and fresh finish. A true champion of the denomination.
