Curation Note
The Tasting
A guided note in three moments, by our curators
-
Appearance & Nose
01Volpaia Vermentino, a white wine expressing Maremma Toscana, presents a bouquet evoking proximity to the sea, a distinctive characteristic of this area.
-
Palate & Finish
02On the palate, the freshness and sapidity, elements clearly influenced by the Tyrrhenian Sea, integrate with the peculiarities of the alluvial soils. Alternating breezes, a modern drip irrigation system, and the pedoclimatic conditions with a South-facing exposure and an altitude of 40-50 meters, favor a 2-hectare vineyard cultivated in Guyot with high planting density.
-
At the Table
03The clayey and sandy soil, along with 100% Vermentino, define the character of this wine, which pairs splendidly with fish dishes, shellfish, or a classic seafood salad.
