Bolgheri DOC

Vermentino Tenuta Meraviglia: the coastal soul of Bolgheri

Let me guide you to a Tuscan gem, a white wine that whispers of the sea air and the warmth of the sun. This Vermentino from Tenuta Meraviglia is the understated elegance of a rising appellation, an invitation to freshness and authenticity.

Bolgheri, land of sea and vines

We are in Bolgheri, a coastal area of Tuscany where the sea breeze and the particular terroir shape wines of unique personality. Here, Tenuta Meraviglia carefully cultivates Vermentino, a grape variety that thrives fully on these lands. This 2022 vintage is the result of fermentation in temperature-controlled steel tanks, a method that preserves the purity of its aromas.

Its robe is adorned with a brilliant straw yellow, streaked with greenish highlights, a promise of its youth. On the nose, I perceive delicate floral notes, sparkling citrus and that hint of Mediterranean herbs that signs its origin. On the palate, it reveals beautiful liveliness, a refreshing acidity that balances the fruity flavors, evoking tropical fruits and green apple. After fermentation, this wine benefited from three months of aging in cement tanks on fine lees, which gives it additional texture and complexity.

A sea breeze at your table

This Vermentino is an ideal companion for your moments of sharing. I highly recommend it as an aperitif, where its freshness awakens the taste buds. It pairs wonderfully with light antipasti, dishes of freshly caught fish or seafood. Imagine it with an octopus salad or pasta with clams, it's a delight. It also pairs very well with fresh and flavorful cheeses, or even light Asian cuisine. It's a wine that celebrates lightness and conviviality, perfect for a sunny lunch or a mild evening.
