Description:

Cococciola is a white grape variety typical of Abruzzo , specifically of the province of Chieti, with a vineyard area of ​​about 900 hectares. In the other provinces, in fact, it is less widespread. It is also present in some places in the north of Puglia.

Cococciola was used for a long time only as a blending wine for Trebbiano d'Abruzzo, to increase its acidity, but the grape variety has recently been the protagonist of a rediscovery and today it is also vinified alone.

Its marked acidity makes it particularly suitable for sparkling wine, both with the Classic method and with the Charmat method. 

This is a great alternative to Prosecco 

Tasting note

The wine is a brilliant straw yellow with an elegant and persistent perlage. It has complex aromas on the nose, with hints of green citrus fruits and floral notes. On the palate, it is elegant, mineral-tinged and well-balanced.
