Poggio alle Gazze dell’Ornellaia - 2021 - Toscana Bianco IGT
Bright straw yellow.
On the palate, the wine is generous and refreshing, culminating in an enduring savory, mineral finish as a true representation of the region.
The nose is complex and enticing with an array of citrus, exotic fruit and white floral notes accompanied by freshly cut grass and asparagus.
The clusters were hand-picked into small 15 kg boxes in the early morning hours and immediately chilled on arrival at the cellar to fully preserve their aromatic compounds. After a meticulous quality selection, the whole clusters were given a very slow, gradual pressing, while great care was exercised to prevent fruit oxidation. After gravity settling of some 12 hours, the separate lots of must were put to barriques, 25% of which new and 25% used, in steel tanks and in concrete vats (50%). Fermentation temperatures did not exceed 22°C, and the wine did not go through malolactic fermentation. The wine matured on the fine lees for 6 months, with regular bâtonnage throughout the period, followed by the final blend assemblage. After a light fining, it rested an additional 12 months in the bottle before release.
