A barrel-fermented Vernaccia di San Gimignano DOCG blending 95% Vernaccia with 5% Chardonnay, fermented and aged in 225-liter oak barrels for four to five months. Deep straw yellow with golden reflections, it offers a fine bouquet of vanilla, pear, apricot and sweet spice, with a dry, mature palate showing mineral presence, almond and honeyed lemon notes.
Proof that Vernaccia can carry oak with grace — this bottling adds weight without losing the variety's signature mineral backbone.
