Lammidia Frekt Bianco 2021

Frekt Bianco is made from 100% Pecorino grown on a half-hectare single vineyard in Villa Celiera, Pescara province, at roughly 700 meters above sea level within the Gran Sasso National Park. The vines average 25 years old and are planted in clay and limestone soils. Grapes are hand-harvested and farmed organically without pesticides, herbicides, or systemic treatments.

In the cellar, Davide Gentile and Marco Giuliani keep it simple: an overnight skin maceration, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in concrete, and several months of aging in the same concrete vessels. The wine is bottled unfiltered and unfined with no added sulfites — pure Pecorino, nothing else.

The result is a light orange wine with a tangerine hue, bright citrus aromatics (lemon, orange blossom, bergamot), summer hay, wildflowers, ginger, and a saline edge. On the palate it is zesty and medium-bodied with lively acidity and light phenolic grip from the short skin contact.

Lammidia releases this wine as Vino Bianco IGT, outside any DOC or DOCG classification — a deliberate choice consistent with their zero-additive, zero-technology approach. The winery motto is "uva e basta": grapes and that is it.
