Frescobaldi's Pomino Bianco originates from vineyards located on the Castello Pomino estate, situated in the eponymous hamlet within the municipality of Rufina, in the province of Florence.

It is produced primarily with Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc grapes and a small proportion of complementary varieties, harvested and selected entirely by hand. Fermentation takes place partly in stainless steel tanks and partly in barriques at a controlled temperature. After partial malolactic fermentation, the wine ages in steel for 4 months and a small part in barriques before being bottled.

Tasting notes: 

It presents a straw yellow color. The nose opens with intense floral aromas of frangipani and jasmine, enriched with fruity hints of apricot, quince, and tropical fruit, followed by cardamom. On the palate, it is savory and harmonious, with a pleasant aftertaste of ripe raspberry.

Pairings:

Suitable as an aperitif, it is perfect with vegetable appetizers and all fish dishes.
