Azienda Agricola Valentini was founded in the early 20th century by Edoardo Valentini. Edoardo started the winery with a dedication to traditional winemaking methods and a focus on the indigenous grape varieties of the Abruzzo region. His dedication to quality and a minimalist approach to winemaking laid the foundation for the estate's reputation for producing exceptional wines. Edoardo's son, Francesco Paolo Valentini, took over the winery and continued the family legacy. Under Francesco Paolo's leadership, the estate became internationally known for its Trebbiano d'Abruzzo and Montepulciano d'Abruzzo wines. The winery's philosophy emphasizes the importance of expressing the unique terroir of the Abruzzo region and making wines with a sense of place.

Vinification at Azienda Agricola Valentini is deeply rooted in tradition and minimal intervention. The estate is known for its attention to detail, organic farming practices and dedication to expressing the unique terroir of the Abruzzo region. The vineyards are planted with local grape varieties such as Trebbiano d'Abruzzo for white wines and Montepulciano d'Abruzzo for reds. Valentini's wines are typically fermented with indigenous yeasts and undergo long maceration and aging processes. The winery uses traditional winemaking methods, including the use of large Slavonian oak barrels for aging.

Azienda Agricola Valentini is best known for its Trebbiano d'Abruzzo, a white wine made from Trebbiano. Valentini's Trebbiano is considered one of the finest expressions of the grape in Italy. The wine is known for its complexity, structure, and ability to age wonderfully. Valentini also produces a red wine from Montepulciano, which is highly regarded for its depth and longevity. Valentini's wines are often described as rare and difficult to find. The limited production, combined with the high demand and the winery's reputation for quality, contributes to the rarity of their wines. The winery is known for only releasing wines when they believe the quality has reached its peak, and this can result in irregular release schedules. Due to the limited quantities and high demand, Valentini can be difficult to find on the market. Collectors and enthusiasts are often willing to pay a premium for these rare bottles.
