Vermentino Bolgheri D.O.C.
Vermentino 100% (selection of Vermentino clones from Corsica)
This is a 100% Bolgheri Vermentino. Its name expresses the close bond between this Mediterranean grape variety and the terroir of Bolgheri: in essence, it is the result of our hard work in vineyards and the ripening effect of the sun. This wine is a special favourite of Marilisa Allegrini. It embodies the colours, fragrances and flavours of these lands that lie so close to the sea.
Climate Trend
2007 was a great year. An exceptionally mild winter was followed by a very long summer. The budding took place earlier than the seasonal average and the summer months were rather cool and dry with a wide temperature range between day and night. There was light rainfall towards the end of September and the grapes ripened uniformly thanks to a green harvest aimed at eliminating excess bunches. The subsequent defoliation before the harvest further contributed to achieving perfect maturation.
