The glamorous Federica Moricone runs Villa Medoro, a 92 hectare estate within sight of the Adriatic that sold its grapes on until the late 1990s when it started to make wine itself. Pairing indigenous varieties with modern winemaking the wines are very appealing but with some serious complexity too; the 2006 Montepulciano was awarded ‘Tre Bicchieri’ in the Gambero Rosso 2009. The whites are just as interesting: the 100% Trebbiano is as spicy and floral as we have come across with this variety, while the Chimera takes some of this Trebbiano and blends it with Falanghina – one of the most intriguing combinations on our whole list.
Crisp and floral with a clean mineral finish. Round and fruit driven with a touch of honey. Think lychee and cooked pears with a touch of cucumber almost. Good minerality on palate with a very subtle touch of sweet spice.

Trebbiano Falanghina blend. A very floral almost Pinot Gris like wine. Showing fine notes of fresh cut grass and Pear Drops. A hint of lemony acidity to ballance and touch of pink pepper to the finish but still very mineral throughout.
