Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine for a moment the sparkling freshness of a Tuscan morning, captured in a bottle. That's exactly what you'll discover with this Leonia Pomino, a spumante that whispers the elegance of the Pomino hills.
This sparkling wine takes root in the heights of Pomino, a DOC appellation nestled in the heart of Tuscany. Here, volcanic soils and a singular microclimate shape grapes of exceptional quality. The Frescobaldi estate, whose winemaking history goes back centuries, passionately cultivates Chardonnay and Pinot Nero there, the grape varieties that bring this vintage cuvée to life.
Leonia is made using the classic method, a guarantee of finesse and complexity. After the second fermentation in the bottle, it benefits from an affinamento sui lieviti of 36 months, a long rest on lees that gives it its aromatic depth. In your glass, you will be charmed by its fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, delicate floral notes mingle with aromas of white-fleshed fruit, enhanced by subtle touches of toasted bread. On the palate, it reveals beautiful freshness, perfect balance and pleasant sapidity, all crowned by a harmonious and lasting finish.
This Leonia Pomino is an invitation to conviviality and lightness. I highly recommend it to accompany your antipasti, especially those based on seafood. It will also be an excellent partner for fish dishes or shellfish, where its freshness will enhance the marine flavors. It's the perfect spumante for a refined aperitif, an intimate celebration or simply to treat yourself. Let yourself be tempted by this Tuscan bubble, it will know how to transport you.
