Baltasis sausas
The logo represents the fluid, the essence of the ancient costal lake of Prelius, what now is known as the Maremma Toscana around Grosseto. The lake has slowly disappeared also due to the drainage of the 30s and now the only fluid that’s left is the excellent wine making tradition of the region. The vineyards of Castelprile are located on a hilltop along the shores of the ancient lake, 5 miles from the sea facing the majestic Tuscan Archipelago.
The nose is with typical hints of aromatic herbs of Vermentino blended with an expression of wild flowers and sweet spices. The wine is full and harmonious on the palate with notes of wild flowers and herbs accompanied by hints of almond on the finish, which is long and notably savoury.
Serve at 8-10 °C with seafood stew, grilled fish, sauces with tomato.
The Castelprile della Volpaia 2021 Maremma Toscana Vermentino Prelius (with 20,000 bottles made) is a tonic and vibrant wine with lots of citrus, sage and some sharp mineral detailing. You get great value with this fun, lean-bodied white wine that would pair with a classic seafood salad with a mix of mussels, squid and shrimp with olive oil and lemon juice.
Since 1172 in Volpaia great Chianti Classico have been produced in organic farming. Already included among the three best wines in the world by Wine Spectator Volpaia is known throughout the world for the beauty of its cellars hidden in the walls of the ancient fortified village. Four generations united in Volpaia’s dream. First Raffaello, then Carlo and Giovannella, today Nicolò and Federica, tomorrow Allegra, Olivia and Tito.
