Vermentino Maremma Toscana Doc Superiore

Vermentino

In a hilly position, a short distance from the sea, the soil is clayey, rich in skeleton with a good supply of limestone. Exposure of the vineyards south and east.

Grapes harvested by hand in the early hours of the day are destemmed and subjected to cold maceration, at 10°C, for 24 hours. Then the must is separated from the skins through a soft press and left to spontaneously clarify for a few hours, before being sent to the fermentation, which takes place at increasing temperatures from 14 to 18°C. Once fermentation has started, the wine is transferred to terracotta amphorae where it brings the process to a conclusion.

The resulting wine matures on its fermentation yeasts until spring, to be subsequently bottled after a light filtration.

Brilliant straw yellow with golden highlights.

Characteristic bouquet of floral notes, citrus, Mediterranean herbs and minerals.

Fresh, dry, soft wine with good structure, long persistence with excellent taste-olfactory correspondence.

First courses with light sauces, fish and white meats.
