Bolgheri Vermentino DOC Solosole 2023 Poggio al Tesoro

Solosole by Poggio al Tesoro is produced with Vermentino grapes from clones of Corsican origin, harvested in the Le Sondraie vineyard, in the heart of the Bolgheri area. This peculiar variety benefits enormously from the large amount of light, typical of this area: it is the prolonged maturation in the sun that contributes to substantially enhance its aromas and flavours. Finally, the night harvest guarantees that the harvested grapes arrive in the cellar without undergoing any stress, preserving the essential aromatic precursors to achieve the typical elegance of Solosole.

After the soft pressing of the whole berries, the fermentation takes place in steel at a temperature of 16 °C for 20 days. The wine ages on the fine lees and for a further month in the bottle before reaching the market.

It is characterized by a straw yellow colour with a good chromatic charge. It offers an intense and persistent bouquet to the nose, made up of floral notes, enriched by a sudden perception of yellow fruit. Medium-bodied, fresh and delicate, it can be appreciated for its juiciness and pleasantness to drink, its clean and crunchy taste.

Perfect as an aperitif, it is ideal in combination with shellfish or sushi.
