Le Refie – Toscana I.G.T

Vintage: 2024

42,00 

Description

The Le Refie estate, which hosts our two highest vineyards, facing east on predominantly sandy soil, gives its name to this wine. The Marsanne and Viognier grapes from the Adelaide vineyard at Le Refie pay tribute to the great wines of the Rhรดne, Alsace, and the Loire. On the palate, the richness and breadth of the Marsanne and Viognier grapes are evident, harmoniously balanced by the tropical notes of Gewรผrztraminer. A moelleux wine that will age gracefully, whose floral notes will evolve into aromas of dried apricots, honey, resin, and flint. Best enjoyed now as a dessert wine paired with cheese, or in a few years while contemplating the rolling hills of Chianti Classico.

Bright straw-yellow color, with very intense, aromatic, and spicy aromas. Fresh and savory taste, with great structure. The sweetness is balanced by lively acidity, finishing with a long mineral aftertaste.
Pairs well with pear crumble or peach tart, and also with foie gras.
