Marina Cvetić
Trebbiano d’Abruzzo Riserva 2022
Abruzzo
The Trebbiano Riserva Marina Cvetic represents the ultimate expression of one of Abruzzo’s historic vines. Like Montepulciano, Trebbiano was once considered a workhorse grape without real potential. This wine changed that view completely, offering an original, full-bodied, and elegant interpretation with its own character. Marina Cvetic wines are known as a “lone voice” for the most demanding and technical experts. Explosive, concentrated golden fruit leads to a rich, floral, and spicy palate. This wine represents a true revolution for Trebbiano and Italian whites.

Reviews
Wine Spectator - June 10, 2025 "Fermented and aged in French oak with bâttonage. Powerful scents of hay, lemon peel and a hint of bergamot. Taut acidity, chalky texture on the palate and a long finish – will age well."
Wine Spectator - September 16, 2025 "Medium-full to full bodied, with aromas of melon, honey and a touch of vanilla and succulent yellow flowers, this is fermented and aged in French barriques which adds complexity and improves structure. This is quite rich on the palate, has bright acidity and impressive persistence along with a note of minerality in the finish; here is a Trebbiano d’Abruzzo that makes a statement - this is the future of this wine type. Rich enough to pair with branzino or a veal chop, this is outstanding; enjoy now or over the next five to seven years."
Vinous - September 30, 2024 "The 2022 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo Riserva mixes a pretty whiff of sweet oak spice, vanilla bean, hints of sawdust and ripe yellow apples. It's seamless and silky in feel, with fresh acidity and juicy white pit fruits that swirl throughout. This tapers off with balance and refinement, classically dry and long with gingery spice that adds lovely punctuation. The 2022 has a noticeable oak sheen but is well-integrated with the primary fruit."
James Suckling - September 17, 2024 "A serious Trebbiano d’Abruzzo that shows oak spices, creaminess, subtle white nuts and white fruit. Pretty flavorful on the palate, with a medium to full body and a slightly astringent, spicy finish."

Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Gianni Masciarelli one day suprised his wife by presenting her with this wine, from the grape he made famous from the region, named after her. Croatian in origin, her first reaction was that no one would be able to pronounce the wine. Because of the outstanding sites used to produce the wine and the serious winemaking care it undergoes, Marina Cvetic Montepulciano d'Abruzzo soon became the most widespread example of serious Montepluciano in the world.
