Description
What kind of wine is it?
Masso Vivo Vermentino Tenuta Ammiraglia di Frescobaldi is a white wine from Tuscany, made exclusively from Vermentino grapes sourced from the Magliano area. Vinification takes place in thermally controlled stainless steel tanks, with fermentation at 20°C for 11 days, to maintain a fresh and defined profile. After partial cryomaceration and maturation between steel and bottle, the wine offers freshness and saltiness on the palate, with good body and a fruity finish.
Where it comes from
The wine originates from vineyards located in the municipality of Magliano, in the province of Grosseto, Tuscany. Its origin is Tenuta Ammiraglia, which gives the wine its distinctive sense of place. In this context, Vermentino shows a clear and linear profile, with citrus accents and a savory edge that enhances drinkability.
How it is produced
The Vermentino grapes are harvested towards the end of September and undergo partial cryomaceration to favor controlled extraction of aromatic precursors. Fermentation is carried out in thermally controlled stainless steel tanks at 20°C and lasts 11 days, with an emphasis on aromatic clarity. The wine then matures for 4 months in steel and refines for 1 month in bottle before release.
Tasting notes
Visually, it appears as a pale and bright golden yellow, with topaz highlights. The nose opens with floral notes of jasmine and hawthorn, enhanced by citrus hints; followed by nuances of pear, honey, linden, and almond. On the palate it is fresh and savory, with a solid body and a clean, well-paced progression. The finish is characterized by fruity sensations and a clean closure.
Food pairings
It pairs naturally with fish and shellfish dishes, thanks to its freshness and sapidity that complement delicate preparations. It is also ideal with first courses, timbales and vegetables, where the fruity profile and balance of the sip integrate without overpowering the flavors. It suits both essential recipes and delicately seasoned dishes.
When to serve
This is a white wine to enjoy from its release, when floral and citrus notes are most pronounced and the sapidity supports the palate. The period of 4 months in steel and 1 month in bottle lends the wine a clean and immediate technical profile. It is perfect for fish-based lunches, vegetable dishes, or first courses when you seek a fresh, linear wine with a fruity finish.
