About this Wine:
In the heart of Tuscany’s Maremma zone, on volcanic soils, the Vermentino grape shows at its very best in this zesty and lively wine.

12.5% abv

Tasting Notes:
A deep straw yellow, with faint green highlights. On the nose it offers intense aromas of ripe and exotic fruits; the palate is delicately fruity, lithe and lively, with a long and nicely tangy finish.

Its fresh, tangy style make it excellent for accompanying seafood and even quite elaborate fish dishes; try it also with vegetable tempura, or stuffed vegetables.

Origin:
The grapes are selected both from the Montebuono vineyard, Rompicollo
estate in Pitigliano, and in the Albore estate in Scansano. The soils are of volcanic origin with good exposure and excellent ventilation.

Vinification & Maturation:

After pressing, the must undergoes a short cryomaceration with its skins, to extract the aromatic precursors. Fermentation is carried out slowly at low temperatures and then the wine refines for 5 months in stainless steel tanks.

Ratings & Reviews

90 Points - James Suckling: 
"Some bright and very crunchy, tangy tropical fruit and lemons here, making for an easygoing white." (Sep 2019)

Wine Spectator:
"Floral and fruity, sporting lilac, apricot, grapefruit and sage aromas and flavors. Balanced and elegant, with a moderately long finish. 1,000 cases imported." - Bruce Sanderson (Apr 2020)
