Description
Vermentino Principe Corsini is born in Marsiliana in Manciano, southern Maremma, where the proximity of the sea is felt in the climate, seen in the light, and breathed in the air. The vineyards, which the large extent of the land has made it possible to position in the area with a maximum wine-growing vocation, count about 20 hectares in total.
The soils of Marsiliana are composed prevalently of sand and silt over clay, giving life to extraordinary Mediterranean expressions of a Bordeaux blend.
Vermentino, 100% Vermentino aged in stainless steel, blends the characteristics of the grape variety with the unique aspects of the territory. The result is a fresh, immediate, and saline wine that remids about the sea.
Winemaking
Soft pressing after destemming of whole grapes harvested by hand; 16-hour skin maceration; fermentation for 16 days at 12 °C.
Tasting Notes
Tenuta Marsiliana’s Vermentino is a white wine that captures a magical aspect of the Tuscan Maremma, just north of the Argentario promontory, quite close to the Tyrrhenian sea and still featuring the volcanic tufo layers of the interior. The bright straw-yellow color of the wine reflects the sunny context, while the nose offers a blend of sweet aromas, reminiscent of acacia flowers, lychee, lemon cream and clear hints of Mediterranean scrub with the interweaving seaweed and dried seagrass, that one can actually find among the local sand dunes. The taste is balanced, marked by captivating saltiness and refreshing vitality, with excellent lenght and consistency between taste and smell.
