"A mid-weighted, textural and prodigiously fresh dry white, with substantially more interest than the majority from the region. Arguably the top producer of the denomination. Fennel, Granny Smith apple and spiced quince, sluiced with a saline thread of acidity. Admirably poised and easy drinking. From organically grown grapes." -James Suckling

Aging Potential - 5 years

Vernaccia di San Gimignano was the first Italian wine to be granted DOC status in 1966, cementing its place as the leading white wine of Tuscany. It grows on the tuff and sandstone-based soils around the village of San Gimignano, with its iconic towers serving as reminders of the variety’s long history in the region, with references dating back to 1276. This expression offers perfumed aromatics of white flowers, stone fruit and lemon. It's a wine of refreshment, but offers textural interest thanks to aging on the lees.
