Its aromatic profile offers notes of quince, pear and melon, enriched by hints of rosemary. On the palate, it reveals a \u003cstrong\u003efull and warm sip\u003c\/strong\u003e, balanced by a freshness that lightens the deep structural texture. The tasting culminates in a \u003cstrong\u003esavoury and saline finish\u003c\/strong\u003e, a clear expression of its maritime character. It is a complex label, capable of evolving beautifully over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis white originates in Tuscany, in the Montecucco area. The Vermentino grows in the estate's vineyards at three hundred metres altitude: the west-facing exposure allows the bunches to receive constant \u003cstrong\u003esea breezes\u003c\/strong\u003e, encouraging thicker skins and aromatic richness. The Grechetto, on the other hand, comes from vines facing north-west, subject to a \u003cstrong\u003eslow ripening cycle\u003c\/strong\u003e and late harvesting. These contrasts give the \u003cstrong\u003eblend\u003c\/strong\u003e a balanced combination of aromatic intensity, body and vibrant freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFermentation takes place entirely in \u003cstrong\u003eoak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, a technical choice aimed at defining the wine's rich structure. This is followed by a prolonged \u003cstrong\u003eageing on fine lees\u003c\/strong\u003e for nine months, also in oak barrels. This practice increases the gustatory volume, creating harmony between material roundness and vital tension, while fully respecting the varietal identity. Thanks to its sensory profile, it is excellent with \u003cstrong\u003esushi and shellfish\u003c\/strong\u003e, as well as vegetarian dishes and goat's cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in the heart of the \u003cstrong\u003eMontecucco DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e, ColleMassari's Irisse 2024 is an elegant \u003cstrong\u003eorganic wine\u003c\/strong\u003e that harmoniously blends Vermentino and Grechetto.
