Writing about the Masciarelli winery is not just about immersing oneself in the Abruzzo region: it is going to the roots of Italian winemaking quality.
The Villa Gemma Line is an absolute icon of Masciarelli’s production.
Villa Gemma Bianco Abruzzo DOC is an authentic example of a white wine that is always modern, transcending trends thanks to its identity consolidated over time.
A composite blend of characterful grapes, with Trebbiano d’Abruzzo providing a fresh fruity intensity that combines with the acidity and floral notes of Cococciola, completing the structure and sapidity generously brought by Pecorino.
Three proud grape varieties, representatives of oenological Abruzzo, for a wine that, with the same pride, consolidates the qualitative and territorial vocation of this company.
Villa Gemma Bianco is first tasted on the nose: an extraordinary breadth surprises even the expert enthusiast.
The marked and elegant minerality is found on the palate, where it is enhanced in the structure and excellent gustatory complexity.
The finish is rich and enveloping: the olfactory balance harmoniously comes to mind, while the sapidity and freshness immediately invite another sip.
This wine demands a stellar pairing, with ingredients of extreme quality: fish main courses and raw fish (crudi) enhance its current, vibrant, and winning style, making it a strongly identifying feature of the Masciarelli formula.
