"San Bartolomeo" Bianco Toscana IGT 2021

San Bartolomeo, Toscana IGT, is one of the good wines produced by the Triacca company on the Santavenere estate in the municipality of Montepulciano. Tuscany land of great reds, therefore, but also of unexpected whites. Just like this San Bartolomeo, son of pure Chardonnay, grown on soils rich in poorly cemented sandy clay. After harvesting, and before fermentation, the skins of these grapes remain in contact with the must for about 12 hours at a temperature of 5°C. This technique, called cryomaceration, is used for quality white wines, and allows more substances to be extracted to enrich the organoleptic properties of the wine. After fermentation, the wine is then passed for a short period in small oak barrels to further enrich its aromatic potential. Straw yellow in colour, the nose reveals aromas of yellow-fleshed fruit and slight mineral and vanilla notes. In the mouth it is soft and fresh. Full, with a particularly long finish. Excellent as an aperitif, it goes well with delicate hors d'oeuvres, fish, shellfish and young cheeses.
