Campo Maccione, Vermentino 2022
DESCRIPTION
Vermentino grapes grown in the sunny vineyards of the Casamaria estate in the Maremma region form the main component of this wine. Straw yellow in color, the bouquet offers floral notes reminiscent of acacia flower and broom, which then give way to delicate fruity scents of apple and pineapple and a slight almond aftertaste. The mouth is dry, smooth and pleasantly fresh. A wine that makes you think of the summer heat that just keeps on coming.
REGION
Tuscany
Italy
Tuscany is Italy's third most vine-planted region (behind Sicily and Apulia) but it is eighth in terms of output, reflecting both its poor soil and deliberate efforts to limit yields but increase the quality of the wine. After Piedmont and Veneto, Tuscany produces the third-highest volume of DOC/DOCG wines. More than 80% of the regions' production is in red wine, with the Sangiovese grape being Tuscany's' most prominent grape. Chianti, Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and Super Tuscan are Tuscany’s best known wines, while Trebbiano is the leading white variety of the region.
