Description
AMPHITEATRO BIANCO Toscana IGT
13% alcohol volume
Amphiteatro Bianco is an IGT Toscana Bianco made from Trebbiano grapes. The vineyards lie on Pliocene sediments rich in clay, tuff, and marine fossils. Vinification takes place in stainless steel with temperature control. Skin maceration is limited to a few hours of contact. Alcoholic fermentation is spontaneous, followed by a natural malolactic fermentation without any inoculation. The wine remained in contact with fine lees until bottling in April 2025. The result is a fresh and fruity wine, medium-bodied, well-balanced with a pleasant structure, juicy acidity, minerality, and long persistence.
