Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself by the Mediterranean, a glass in hand. That is the invitation of Alìe Rosé, a wine that embodies the lightness and freshness of Tuscan Maremma. It is not just a wine, it is a promise of sweetness and escape.
Tenuta Ammiraglia, the emblematic estate of the Frescobaldi family, is nestled in Tuscan Maremma, a region where the sun and the sea breeze shape wines of remarkable finesse. It is here that Alìe Rosé is born, a Toscana IGT that expresses the essence of its terroir. It is the fruit of a bold blend of Syrah and Vermentino, two grape varieties that flourish fully under the Mediterranean climate.
At first glance, its color evokes a pale rose petal, a reflection of its delicacy. On the nose, you will be charmed by aromas of grapefruit and fresh fruit, interwoven with floral notes of rose and peony. Touches of Mediterranean herbs and a hint of iodine complete this complex and inviting bouquet. On the palate, its freshness is striking, balanced by beautiful minerality. The vinification, with gentle pressing of whole clusters and fermentation in stainless steel tanks at low temperature (below 19°C), preserves all the purity of the aromas. Three months of aging on fine lees in tank, followed by a period in bottle, refine its texture and complexity.
This rosé is a true gastronomic chameleon. I warmly recommend it for a sunny aperitif, where it will beautifully accompany light antipasti. It is also an ideal companion for fish-based dishes or vegetarian preparations, its freshness pleasantly cutting through the flavors. Serve it well chilled to bring out all its nuances. It is the perfect wine for those informal moments, those meals among friends where lightness and conviviality are the order of the day. Let yourself be carried away by this touch of Maremma, a true ray of sunshine in your glass.
