Citra - Trebbiano d'Abruzzo

This is a 2018 white wine from Abruzzo, Italy, made from 100% Trebbiano grapes. Codice Citra spans 6,000 hectares (14,800 acres), covering most of the Chieti province. Established in 1973, 3,000 small family growers joined forces to create a quality - focused winery. Their family properties stretch along the Adriatic coast from north to south and from the sea to Majella Mountain in the east - west direction. The Trebbiano grapes are hand - picked, gently crushed, and undergo cold maceration. The must from the first press is separated by gravity and fermented at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. The Citra Trebbiano is a soft, floral, and delightfully dry wine. Its straw - colored appearance holds fresh citrus notes, making it light, bright, and crisp. It's perfect as an aperitif on its own or paired with fish, white meat, or mild cheeses.

How to use: You can enjoy this Citra Trebbiano wine straight as an aperitif before a meal to whet your appetite. It also pairs well with fish, white meat like chicken or turkey, and lighter cheeses. When serving, it's best to chill it to around 8 - 10 degrees Celsius. Notice: Keep the wine away from direct sunlight and high - temperature areas. Once opened, try to finish it within 1 - 2 days and store it in the refrigerator. Maintenance advice: Store the unopened bottle in a cool, dark place with a relatively stable temperature. You can also use a wine cellar or a wine fridge if you have one to maintain the best quality of the wine.
