About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Vermentino is grown in Tuscany’s Maremma region on a two-hectare, south-facing site at 40–50 metres above sea level. The vines are Guyot-trained at approximately 9,600 plants per hectare in clay-and-sand soil. Its character is framed around the freshness and savoury influence of the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Grapes

100% Vermentino from organically farmed vineyards.

Vinification

Fermentation takes place in stainless-steel tanks. The wine remains on its lees for six months.

Technical data

The 2025 wine has 12.5% alcohol, 5.9 g/L total acidity and less than 1 g/L residual sugar. It is bottled in 750 ml format and packed 12 bottles per case.

Tasting profile

Floral aromas meet lively citrus, pineapple and mineral notes, with a gentle marine accent. The palate is refreshing and elegant, with balanced acidity, abundant fresh-fruit character and a lingering finish.

Vintage notes

The 2025 season began with a mild, rainy winter. Spring temperatures were above average, although rainfall was limited. June was very hot, while July, August and September were generally moderate and punctuated by several rainy periods. Harvest occurred approximately one week later than the recent average, from the end of August into early September.
