This Vista Castelli Trebbiano d’Abruzzo from Tesco is a great value white wine which works well with so many dishes. It’s also perfect for cooking a white coq au vin.
Trebbiano is one of the most widely cultivated grape varieties in the world. It’s been grown since Roman times, and it is the most important grape variety in Abruzzo. It’s best enjoyed young and well chilled. I would choose this with grilled lamb, in the garden on a warm summer evening.
This is a light and refreshing white wine with notes of cut grass, citrus and peaches. It’s crisp and dry and could be paired with oily fish, and pasta with cheese sauces.
Vista Castelli Trebbiano d’Abruzzo is better quality than the price might suggest. It’s under a fiver, which is a surprise, so it’s the go-to wine for a summer party. It’s suitable for vegans, therefore an all-round crowd pleaser, and it won’t break the bank.
