Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself in the heart of Maremma, under the Tuscan sun, a glass in hand. This Vermentino from the Cerreto Piano estate is exactly that: a gulp of freshness and liveliness that evokes sea breezes and Mediterranean scents. It embodies the discreet elegance of a unique terroir.
Maremma, this coastal region of Tuscany, offers an ideal setting for growing Vermentino. The Cerreto Piano estate exclusively cultivates this grape variety there, taking advantage of its climate and soils to produce a wine that faithfully expresses its origin. It is in this land bathed in light that the personality of this white is born.
When you bring your nose to the glass, you first perceive intense aromas of fresh fruit, dominated by green apple and citrus, like a promise of liveliness. Then, more delicate nuances of white flowers are revealed, adding a subtle complexity. On the palate, the attack is fresh and pleasantly acidic, evolving towards a medium body and a soft texture. The fruity flavors persist, enriched by a light mineral aftertaste that brings balance and persistence. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, followed by aging in the same tanks, then bottle refinement to preserve all its freshness.
This Vermentino is an invitation to the summer table. I recommend serving it chilled, between 10 and 12°C. It pairs wonderfully with fish dishes, seafood, and light antipasti. Imagine it with spaghetti alle vongole, an orata (sea bream) from the oven garnished with aromatic herbs, or simply as an aperitif to start a convivial meal. It is a wine that celebrates the simplicity and richness of Maremma's flavors, a true expression of the passion and know-how of the Cerreto Piano estate.
