Tasting notes

The start of the 2023 vintage was characterised by lower than average temperatures and abundant rainfall. Rising temperatures in July brought the year's averages back in line with historical averages. From August until early autumn (grapes continued to ripen into this season), temperatures significantly exceeded historical averages. This, as well as the lack of precipitation, strong solar radiation and warm southerly winds that blew over Tuscany reversed the trend from spring 2023. The harvest also featured no rainfall, thus allowing us to obtain healthy grapes and harvest them at the best time.

Wine Variety: Chardonnay

Alcohol content: 12%

Maturation: in stainless steel

Organoleptic Notes: Albizzia 2023 has a delicate straw yellow colour . The smell ranges from fresh fruity notes reminiscent of citrus and green apple to more intense notes of exotic fruit; floral notes that recall chamomile also accompany the nose. The balsamic nuances are also beautiful. The alcohol-acid balance on the palate is marvellous, accompanied by a slight savouriness on the finish.

Wine pairing: Excellent as an apéritif, it goes well with delicately flavoured cured meats such as sweet ham. Perfect together with pasta tossed with vegetables or lightly flavoured fish.

Available formats: 0.75 l
