Abruzzo, the earth, and the good products...
A bruzzo, the earth, and the good things are the family passions transmitted from Nonno Antonio and Mario, who inspired Stefano and Francesco, two brothers of 29 and 26 years old, to produce their biological wine.
From the love of good wine and the respect for the land, Azienda Vinicola Petrini was born, which entirely bottles wine made from biological grape harvested by hand, from selected the best fruits in the provinces of Pescara and Chieti, for a final product which presents itself as elegant and confident.
The object is not to shift the naturalness of wine. The attentive selection of prime raw materials allows the minimal intervention in the canteen. The discreet and masterly work of the oenologist and an external consultant, allow the surfacing of the goodness and character of the harvested grapes. Their origin is entirely biologic, guaranteed by ICEA, a certified institution which strictly monitors the details in the winemaking, contributing to the sustainable development of the biological production, both from an agricultural and wine perspective.
Vines and wines
The young Azienda Vinicola Petrini debuts with 20,000 bottles. Its niche production in in rapid growth. The harvest that is used in the winemaking includes:
- Montepulciano
- Chardonay
- Pecorino
- Trebbiano
The hills overlook the Adriatic sea, a unique symbol of this region, which undoubtleprovies a suggestive characteristic to the Petrini wine. The current bottles in the market tell their story:
- Montepulciano doc, Senza Alibi
