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 featured no rainfall and refreshing sea breezes, thus allowing us to obtain healthy grapes and harvest them at the best time.

Wine Variety: Vermentino

Maturation: steel

Alcohol content: 12%

Organoleptic Notes: CalaForte Vermentino 2023 has a beautiful, clear and brilliant straw yellow colour. On the nose it is characterised by interesting Mediterranean scents such as aromatic herbs reminiscent of thyme, sage and marjoram. Later, floral and yellow fruit scents emerge. On the palate it is savoury, lively, drinkable and fresh.

Wine pairing: It is a perfect match for fish dishes, shellfish, timbales and first courses made with vegetables.

Available formats: 0,75 L
