The Bolgheri Vermentino from the Tenuta Guado al Tasso of Antinori is a fruity and savory white, born in a denomination famous worldwide for the great reds produced with the renowned Bordeaux grape varieties. In fact, Vermentino has always dwelled in these lands. From the Colli di Luni to the Maremma, the entire Tuscan coast is highly suited for the cultivation of this variety with a Mediterranean profile. Antinori offers an interpretation with a distinctly territorial, sunny, and marine character, which pairs very well with seafood cuisine.
The Bolgheri Vermentino from Antinori originates in the Tuscan estate of Guado al Tasso. The property is located in the Alta Maremma, in a beautiful coastal area surrounded by the gentle hills of the Bolgheri amphitheater, which protect the area from the north-east winds. The climate is temperate, mild, and always very breezy due to the constant presence of sea breezes. The sunny exposures of the vineyards promote perfect ripening of the grapes with particularly rich aromatic profiles. The soils are alluvial in nature, with a composition of predominantly silt-sandy nature. The Vermentino grapes come from different vineyards of the estate and upon arrival at the winery, they are gently pressed and vinified separately by parcel. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of about 16 °C. The best batches are then blended and aged for a few months in steel before bottling.
The Bolgheri Vermentino produced at the Tenuta Guado al Tasso of Antinori is a young and fresh version of the most typical white of the Tuscan coast. A label with a classic profile that enhances the best qualities of a grape variety that expresses itself best in the coastal, sunny, and windy areas. In appearance, it presents a bright light straw yellow color. On the nose, it is elegant and intense, with aromas of white flowers, aromatic herbs from the Mediterranean scrub, citrus peel, and fragrant white-fleshed fruit. Smooth and fruity, it offers a savory sip with pleasantly rich and expressive fruit, with a fresh, harmonious, and mineral finish.
