Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine a light breeze caressing the Tuscan hills, carrying with it the scents of flowers and fruits. That is exactly the emotion I feel when discovering the Albia Rosé from the Ricasoli estate, a gem that embodies the delicacy and freshness of this blessed land. It is not a flashy rosé, but rather an invitation to subtlety, a caress for the palate.
We are here in the heart of Chianti Classico, in Gaiole in Chianti, on the historic lands of the Ricasoli estate, a name that resonates with Tuscan wine history. It is in this emblematic landscape, around Madonna a Brolio, that the grapes of this wine are born. The Albia Rosé is a harmonious blend of Sangiovese and Merlot, two grape varieties that, under the Tuscan sun, reveal here an unexpected facet of their personality.
From the very first glance, its pale pink color with saline reflections captivates you, promising a tasting full of finesse. On the nose, you will be charmed by delicate notes of wild strawberry and citrus blossoms, a fruity and floral profile that evokes lightness. On the palate, this balance is confirmed: a smooth texture, a pleasant freshness and a measured acidity that supports everything without ever dominating. The Ricasoli estate opts for a light pressing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks at low temperature (12-16°C), followed by three months of aging in stainless steel, thus preserving all the liveliness and purity of the aromas of this 2025 vintage.
This rosé is a true invitation to conviviality and lightness. It is perfect for the aperitivo, but it also pairs wonderfully with a multitude of dishes. Imagine it alongside light fish, a crunchy summer salad, or seasonal vegetables. It will also enhance delicate charcuterie or fresh cheeses. I recommend serving it between 10 and 12 °C, in a rosé or white wine glass, to fully appreciate every nuance. It is a wine to be drunk young, offering you an elegant and unpretentious tasting experience, ideal for informal moments and simple meals.
