About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

Arioso expresses the sandy soils and maritime breezes of the Tuscan coast. The soils are sandy-clayey and alluvial, with the coastal setting shaped by the Libeccio and Mistral winds.

Grapes

100% Vermentino.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested carefully by hand. Fermentation takes place in stainless-steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 16 °C.

Ageing

The wine remains in stainless steel to preserve its delicate aromatic profile and then refines in bottle for two months.

Technical data

IGT Toscana Bianco. Recommended serving temperature: 10 °C.

Tasting profile

Brilliant straw yellow with greenish reflections. The clear, intense bouquet offers citrus fruit, flowers, wild herbs, green apple and summer pear. Full-bodied and supported by pronounced acidity, the palate is delicate, savory and lively, with persistent flavor and a mineral aftertaste.

Serving and pairing

Serve at 10 °C. Fish pairings include salmon, sea bass, sea bass with potatoes and baked vegetables, monkfish, fried cod and pasta with mussels. It also suits baked rabbit, rabbit with rosemary and white meats prepared with lard or bacon, as well as young fresh cheeses.

Label / history

The ethereal, luminous name evokes the sky over the Tuscan coast, the Libeccio and Mistral breezes, and sunlight reflected from the sea.
