Jasci e Marchesani's Traminer brings Gewürztraminer to Abruzzo, where the organic estate interprets the aromatic grape in a dry, rounded style. Orchard and tropical fruit give it an expressive fragrance, while freshness supports the palate. It is an appealing white for drinkers who enjoy perfume and flavour without dessert-wine sweetness.
- Aromas: Apricot, tangerine, pear and yellow apple, with tropical-fruit hints adding generosity to the grape's aromatic profile.
- Palate: Rounded and fragrant, with enough freshness to give the finish definition. The fruit feels expressive, but the overall drinking style remains dry.
- Style: A dry, medium-bodied aromatic white for drinkers who prefer a broader, perfumed palate to a sharply austere citrus-led wine.
- Winemaking: Made from Gewürztraminer, labelled here as Traminer. The style highlights the variety's aromatic fruit and rounded texture; the emphasis remains on aromatic clarity and a food-friendly balance of fruit and freshness.
- Cellaring: Enjoy now. Prioritise drinking over further ageing, as delicate fruit can fade with time.
- Food Pairing: Thai-style chicken with restrained chilli, prawns with ginger, aromatic vegetable dishes or a soft cheese platter; avoid heavily sweet sauces.
Love an aromatic white but want something for dinner rather than dessert? This Traminer is an inviting choice. Its fruit and perfume make it especially appealing with gently spiced dishes, and it brings an unexpected grape to the Abruzzo part of your wine journey. Serve cool rather than ice cold, allowing the fragrance and texture to show more clearly in the glass.
Jasci e Marchesani
Between the Adriatic Sea and the inland hills around Vasto, Jasci e Marchesani is a family winery with an unusually long commitment to organic growing. The Jasci and Marchesani families moved from livestock and market gardening into viticulture, drawing on an older household tradition of winemaking. Today Nicola Jasci leads the business, with his wife Federica responsible for the technical winemaking side and other relatives contributing their expertise. Montepulciano is the principal red grape, while the white collection explores Abruzzo varieties including Pecorino and Trebbiano.
The family began working organically in 1960 and achieved certification in 1978, placing it among Italy’s early adopters. That history is an essential part of the estate’s identity, supported today by a cellar using renewable energy. Different vineyard locations shape different styles: the Sinello valley contributes savoury whites, while the clay-rich inland hills provide the fruit for more structured Montepulciano, including Janù. For drinkers seeking characterful Abruzzo wines, Jasci e Marchesani offers a persuasive combination of regional grapes, family involvement and an organic philosophy developed over decades.
