About this wine
Contesa Abruzzo DOC Passerina 2025 is an organic white wine made from 100% Passerina grown at 200 metres above sea level in Collecorvino, in the province of Pescara. The vines are trained to the traditional Pergola Abruzzese system, with a planting density of 1,600 vines per hectare and a yield of 16 tonnes per hectare.
