Toscana IGT Ampeleia Bianco di Ampeleia Elisabetta Foradori 2017

Azienda Ampeleia is a domaine on the Costa Toscana founded in 2002, and is the result of a fortuitous encounter between Elisabetta Foradori (one of the greatest Italian winegrowers), Thomas Widmann, and Giovanni Podini, who found a perfect place to express their vision in Ampeleia. In 2009, the domaine began to make the transition to biodynamic management and now produces wines which perfectly reflect their very complex and diverse terroirs.

The Trebbiano which makes up this cuvée has been aged for six months in cement vats and the berries have macerated for about ten days in their skins. We are amazed by its aromatic bouquet which is rich in notes of wax, sweet spices and bitter orange. The palate is reminiscent of flint and lemon zest. This is a surprising wine which will pair beautifully with oven-baked fish for example.
