Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself under the Tuscan sun, a glass in hand. This Bianco Toscana IGT from Ricasoli, 2022 vintage, is an invitation to freshness and authenticity, a wine that whispers the story of its land with every sip.
I'm taking you to the heart of Chianti Classico, in Gaiole in Chianti, where the majestic Castello di Brolio watches over the Ricasoli vineyards. It is here, on these history-laden lands, that this singular white wine is born, made from 100% Trebbiano. This grape variety, often underestimated, reveals all its nobility here thanks to a bold winemaking process.
This Trebbiano is the fruit of meticulous work: a three-month maceration in amphora, followed by twelve months of aging split between amphora (40%), steel (30%) and barrels (30%). This approach gives the wine a luminous robe, a nose where notes of white flowers and fresh citrus mingle, complemented by touches of white-fleshed fruit and a discreet but persistent minerality. On the palate, you will discover a balanced structure, a lively acidity that awakens the taste buds, and a medium-weight body. The finish is clean, long, and makes you want to come back for more.
This Bianco Toscana IGT is an ideal companion for your meals. I recommend it with grilled fish, whose simplicity will highlight its freshness. It will also pair wonderfully with poultry, creamy risottos, or seafood. Don't hesitate to serve it with medium-aged cheeses, which will underscore its delicate aromas. It is a wine suited both to convivial dinners and more informal occasions, where you will appreciate its elegant presence without ostentation. Serve it slightly chilled, but avoid temperatures that are too low, which would mask its aromatic subtleties.
