Tasting

"Notes of yellow flowers and Mediterranean spices are perceived, which progressively expand with sweet aromas and deep mineral sensations. The entrance on the palate is fresh, fragrant, characterized by pleasant acidity and savoury persistence. " Giovanni Puccioni, Winemaker

Vinification

A wine produced from the oldest vineyards of Vermentino on the estate, at 300 meters high, exposed to the West and caressed by the sea winds which go up the Ombrone valley and favour the classical browning and crispiness of the berries of this variety, giving aromatic maturation and flavour. The Grechetto comes from an old vineyard too, facing North-West whose maturations are slower and sees more late harvests, participates with elegance to the structure and maintains the freshness of this wine. Vinification in oak casks of 40 hl. The wine was aged on lees for 9 months and was bottled on the 16th of July 2021.
