The combination of Vermentino, Ansonica and Viognier gives it a bright yellow colour with lively greenish highlights. On the nose, it reveals an intense bouquet, characterised by notes of white peach, hints of pineapple and linden blossom. On the palate, it offers a \u003cstrong\u003ecreamy texture\u003c\/strong\u003e balanced by a distinct mineral streak. The sip finishes with a \u003cstrong\u003efresh, citrusy finish\u003c\/strong\u003e, precisely recalling the aromas of Mediterranean herbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine is produced at the Le Mortelle estate, in the heart of the Maremma, near Castiglione della Pescaia. The vineyards are rooted in \u003cstrong\u003esandy and silty soil\u003c\/strong\u003e, ideal for imparting a clear character deeply connected to the coastal territory. The winery, designed to minimise environmental impact, is partially underground and built with natural materials. The structure takes advantage of the effective \u003cstrong\u003ethermal regulation of the rocks\u003c\/strong\u003e and adopts a \u003cstrong\u003egravity-fed production process\u003c\/strong\u003e, designed to handle the grapes with the utmost delicacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHarvesting takes place from early September for the Viognier to early October for the Ansonica. The grapes undergo a \u003cstrong\u003egentle pressing\u003c\/strong\u003e and are vinified separately to preserve their varietal identity. The must is cooled for twenty-four hours to encourage natural clarification, then moves on to \u003cstrong\u003efermentation in stainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e at a controlled temperature. The wine gains structure thanks to a brief \u003cstrong\u003eageing on the lees\u003c\/strong\u003e of about three months in the same tanks, completing its production journey in the months following the harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcquired by the \u003cstrong\u003eAntinori\u003c\/strong\u003e family in 1999, the enchanting Le Mortelle estate is located in the heart of the Maremma, near Castiglione della Pescaia. Here, wines of great elegance are produced in an \u003cstrong\u003eunderground cellar\u003c\/strong\u003e perfectly integrated into the landscape and built with natural materials to take advantage of the thermal regulation of the rocks. The innovative gravity-flow winemaking process gently guides the grapes to the underground ageing phase. Vivia enhances the coastal varieties, masterfully blended with \u003cstrong\u003eViognier\u003c\/strong\u003e, introduced after years of careful experimentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Le Mortelle (Antinori)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44932918280363,"sku":"55630","price":13.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/le-mortelle-maremma-toscana-vivia-2024_55630_1_4f49e7c1-88dc-4d9e-a473-595fd2950339.webp?v=1773760748","url":"https:\/\/xtriwine.com\/products\/le-mortelle-maremma-toscana-vivia-2024","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
