🍷 Fertuna – Droppello Bianco
Italy | Tuscany | Maremma Toscana IGT | Sangiovese (vinified as white wine)
Style: Still White Wine
Winemaking: An innovative white made from red Sangiovese grapes using gentle pressing and cool fermentation to extract only the free-run juice—no skin contact—preserving freshness while expressing Sangiovese’s delicate aromatic side.
Farming: Grown in the coastal vineyards of Maremma, where sea breezes, sun-soaked days, and well-drained soils lend brightness, minerality, and purity to the fruit.
🌿 A white wine with a red soul—crisp, original, and utterly refreshing.
👁 In the Glass:
Pale straw with silver reflections—refined and luminous.
👃 On the Nose:
Delicate and distinctive. Aromas of white peach, green apple, and citrus blossom mingle with subtle hints of almond and flint.
👅 On the Palate:
Fresh and lively. Notes of pear, lemon zest, and white flowers are framed by crisp acidity and a saline, mineral backbone. Elegant in texture with a dry, clean finish and a touch of Sangiovese tension.
🍽 Food Pairing:
A natural match for seafood crudo, grilled octopus, herbed chicken, or burrata with olive oil. Also an intriguing aperitif with artisanal cheeses.
⏳ Ageing Potential:
Best enjoyed within 2–3 years for peak vibrancy and aromatic clarity.
✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Fertuna’s Droppello is a bold twist on Tuscan tradition—transforming Sangiovese into a white that’s vibrant, elegant, and full of coastal character. A wine for the curious palate and lovers of the unexpected.
