IGT area (also Terre de L'Aquila) for white, red and rosé wines (country wines) in the Italian region of Abruzzo. It covers 44 hectares of vineyards in the entire province of L'Aquila. Grape varieties authorised in the region may be used. Varietal wines must contain at least 85% of the variety in question, up to 15% may be other varieties. Dual varietal wines must be blended from 50 to 85% of the main grape variety, plus 15 to 50% of other grape varieties. For the wines, a minimum alcohol content is prescribed for each wine type, but no ageing periods.
For me, Lexicon from wein.plus is the most comprehensive and best source of information about wine currently available.
