Description
History
The Antinori family has been producing wine for more than 25 generations, exactly since 1385, and today owns many estates scattered throughout the region, Italy and the world. Fattoria Aldobrandesca is located in the southern Maremma, near Sovana, in the center of what is known as the “Etruscan area”. The name of this estate derives from the Aldobrandesca family, to which the estate went in the distant 594 on concession of the Lombards. The lands are located in the middle of an amphitheater which today is a real open-air museum and are mainly composed of tuff and many are also of volcanic origin.

Tasting notes
Coral colour. On the nose, small berries alternate with hints of exotic fruit, also revealing a subtle Mediterranean scent. On the palate, it is light, easy to drink and flowing, with a refreshing sip and mineral notes, in which the Mediterranean influence that was already perceived on the nose is perceived again.
Possible combinations
Perfect for aperitifs and fish-based dishes. Also excellent with white meats and lightly aged cheeses and cured meats.
