Description
AMPHITEATRO ORANGE Toscana IGT
750ml
13% alcohol volume
Amphiteatro Orange is an IGT Toscana Bianco made from Trebbiano grapes. Vineyards are located on Pliocene sediments rich in clay, tuff, and marine fossils. Vinification occurs in stainless steel without temperature control. Skin maceration lasted 25 days. Alcoholic fermentation is spontaneous in an oxidative environment, followed by natural malolactic fermentation in barriques (1/3 new, 2/3 second and third passage). The wine remained on the lees until bottling in April 2025. It results in a structured wine with pleasant oxidative notes, medium acidity, tannic texture, and long persistence.
