The 2022 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo Bianchi Grilli Per La Testa opens with a tropical burst of citrus and spice before leveling out with fresh apples and pears. Soothingly round and pliant, it sweeps across the palate with ripe orchard fruits, ginger spice and sour citrus. The 2022 finishes with tension and fantastic length, leaving a tinge of sour melon and enriching hints of raw almond. Eric Guido, July 2024

Winery: At our estate we only grow a few different native grapes, which we love to vinify in a single-variety style, for the sake of trying to express them as well as we can in our area for each single harvest. With the name “Bianchi Grilli” we appoint very limited white wine productions born from our will and pleasure to deepen and experiment, according to our grapes potential. Here in Italy “avere grilli per la testa” (literally “to have crickets in one’s mind”) means to have strange, creative, funny ideas.

By the way, “Bianchi Grilli” are some “white crickets” that we are not definitely able to put out of our head.
