Native to central-eastern Italy and long overshadowed by Trebbiano and Pecorino, it makes wines of real personality when handled well — and Ciavolich, one of Abruzzo's most serious and respected estates, handles it very well indeed. This 2023, from the Colline Pescaresi IGT, is fragrant and focused: white flowers, green apple skin, a whiff of fennel frond, and a saline, almost chalky edge that gives it lift without sharpness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is exactly the kind of wine you open on a warm evening without overthinking it — and then find yourself reaching for a second glass before dinner's even on the table.

This Cococciola — a variety so obscure it barely registers outside the Pescara hills — is exactly the kind of wine that makes us love what Ciavolich does. Grown on the Colline Pescaresi, the gentle hills inland from the Adriatic, it's a white of real freshness and personality: bright, saline, aromatic, and utterly food-friendly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe find the 2024 vintage expressive and immediate, with white peach, wild fennel, and a briny mineral edge that speaks of the proximity to the sea.
