Tenuta Fertuna

Created in 1997 to fulfil Giuseppe Meregalli’s vision of building a super-premium estate, Tenuta Fertuna proudly sits alongside other noble Italian wine brands also represented by the Meregalli family. The winery is based in the Maremma, a chic but discreet Tuscan sub-region to the west near the coast, sandwiched between Grosseto and Livorno.
It speaks of mineral notes, intense fruity and floral tones, fresh citrus nuances on an excellent basic structure.
Enjoy with grilled white meat and seasonal veg.
Soft pressing of only Sangiovese grapes harvested by hand. The must obtained is slightly oxidized and rests at low temperature in steel for a few days to amplify the aromatic extraction. Fermentation at low temperature with a selected mixture of indigenous yeasts. Evolution for 12 months on "fine lees". It is then aged for 6 months in new Allier tonneaux; in wood, there are various bâtonnage operations that give complexity and intensity to the wine.
