Trebbiano is a widely grown white grape variety, loved for its gentle character and reliable results in the glass. Often associated with Italy, it appears in many styles, from fresh, everyday wines to more expressive bottlings that spend time in oak or on the lees. The flavour profile typically leans towards green apple, pear and citrus, with a light herbal lift that makes it a great match for lighter meals.

One of the reasons Trebbiano is so popular is its ability to adapt. Depending on the vineyard and winemaking, you may find a crisp, mineral-driven wine with lively acidity, or a slightly rounder style with softer fruit. It can also be a useful blending partner, adding freshness and structure while allowing other varieties to shine.

If you’re choosing a bottle for simple, flavoursome food, Trebbiano is often a safe bet. Think salads, seafood, grilled chicken and pasta dishes, especially those with lemon, herbs or a touch of olive oil. With its approachable style and excellent drinkability, it’s a fantastic way to explore the variety and discover what suits your taste.
