Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit is associated with southwest-facing Podere Laurento. Its clay soils lie over a gravelly substrate. The vines average 12–15 years of age, and yield is 80 q/ha (8 t/ha).

Grapes

The 2024 blend is 70% Chardonnay and 30% Sauvignon Blanc.

Vinification

The grapes are gently pressed, followed by temperature-controlled fermentation in Allier oak tonneaux.

Ageing

The wine spends three months in 5.5 hl, medium-toast French Allier oak tonneaux with bâtonnage, followed by at least three months in bottle.

Technical data

Alcohol is 14% vol. Available formats are 0.375 L, 0.75 L and 1.5 L.

Tasting profile

Pale straw yellow. The broad, fruity and floral bouquet develops notes of apricot, peach, jasmine and rose, with wild mint emerging on the finish. The palate is intense, enveloping and elegant, with a long finish.

Serving and pairing

Serve at 10–12°C. Pair with substantial fish dishes, shellfish, oily fish or white meats.
