Torricella, Toscana Igt
Distinctive traits: fresh, complex, with intense minerality
Bottled after nine months of ageing in wood barrels, the wine is complex, of character, of great minerality; and to be enjoyed even after many years in the bottle.
Harvest: The grapes were carefully selected and harvested by hand in the early cool hours of the morning, in the middle of August.
Ageing: The wine was aged on the yeasts with frequent batonnages, in selected tonneaux using 20% new wood, for approximately 10 months. The malolactic fermentation was spontaneous and carried out partially to give the wine a freshness and a crunchiness.
Alcohol: 14%
Tasting notes
Straw yellow color with vivid green highlights. On the nose, hints of white flowers, medlar, apple and pineapple, together with delicate and enveloping notes of vanilla. On the palate, it is full, structured and with good acidity, followed by a pleasant savory and mineral texture and a long, persistent finish. Characteristics that predict this wine's discreet ability to defy time.
