Vermentino 2022
Vermentino is the most widely cultivated white grape variety on the Tuscan coast, a territory that allows it to express its organoleptic characteristics at their best. The soil rich in mineral salts and limestone gives it notes of great minerality and freshness. It is characterized by its warm and delicate aromatic expression, expressing the typical aromas of the Mediterranean scrub.The vineyard, cultivated with a Californian Y training system, under the agronomic advice of Denny Schuster, covers about 7 hectares and lies in a lower and cooler area at about 100 meters above sea level.
Note Annata
After a mild winter thanks to the presence of the very close sea, the vineyards of Poggio al Lupo resumed their harmonious vegetation under the warm and enveloping climate of the Tuscan Maremma. Soon temperatures reached important tenors, but state-of-the-art techniques in managing canopies and soils allowed us to defend the clusters from the summer heat, restoring balance to the vineyards. In the late season, tenuous sun warmed the vineyards during the day, which cooled at night thanks to sea breezes. The skeleton-rich soils at Magliano in Tuscany enhanced the temperature and aroma excursions in the grapes, bringing them to even ripeness.
