Umbria IGT Grechetto Fiorfiore 2022 Cantina Roccafiore

Fiorfiore wine is produced by the young Umbrian Roccafiore winery founded in 2000 and located in the municipality of Todi. The vineyards are located on the rolling hills of the area, which alternate vineyards with olive groves, woods with arable land. Fiorfiore comes from vines from a single vineyard, which grows on soils of white clay, calcareous marl and gypsum.

The grapes are harvested manually in the second decade of September. After a soft pressing of the grapes, the must obtained is naturally decanted with the help of gravity, and then spontaneous fermentation begins at a controlled temperature in steel vats. The wine ages in amphorae and large Slavonian barrels without carrying out the malolactic fermentation, and then rests in the bottle for at least 6 months.

In the glass the glass appears golden yellow. On the nose there are aromas of yellow flowers, pineapple, Golden apple and notes of aromatic herbs. In the mouth the wine is dry and soft, well balanced by the mineral and sapid parts.

It goes perfectly with fish-based dishes, from cacciucco alla livornese to grilled fish, from pasta alla corsara to risotto alla marinara.
