This superbly elegant and stylish wine attracts with a harmonious, refined aroma with dominant shades of peach, lemon, apple, pear, white flowers, and herbs. The taste is restrained, elegant, with fruity-citrus notes, subtle sourness, and a long aftertaste.
The wine is an excellent aperitif, and also goes well with fish dishes, salmon steak and vegetarian dishes.
Fermentation for 21 days in stainless steel tanks (75% wine) and French oak barells (25% wine). Each variety is fermented separately. After the alcoholic, malolactic fermentation follows.
4 months in stainless steel containers, 1 month in a bottle.
Pomino Castle was built in the 16th century by the design of the Florentine architect Gerardo Silvani. Cosimo III Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany, in 1716 included the wines of the castle in the list of the best wines of the region. Castello di Pomino is one of the most advanced farms in Frescobaldi. Here, for the first time in Tuscany, Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco vines were planted, and Pomino Benefizio, released in 1973, became the first white wine in Italy, aged in oak barrels.
