Alie rosè Ammiraglia 2023...
Alìe 2023<br />Toscana IGT<br /><br />Alìe, a figure from Greek mythology, one of the sea nymphs, symbol of sensuality and beauty. Alìe, an elegant rosé with a light, pure colour and subtle ruby hues. A fine<br />balance between Syrah and Vermentino, which find their ultimate expression in close proximity to the sea. Aromas of white flowers, wild strawberries and citrus fruit rind<br />blend into a delicate structure with mineral hints typical of the area, giving a long and rich finish. Charming as an aperitif or with meals and good company.<br /><br />Climatic trend<br />The 2023 vintage was characterised by a mild winter with plenty of rain, concentrated mainly in December and January. The rains in March and April allowed the plants to<br />develop a vigorous, strong leaf wall, ensuring excellent vegetative development; the increase in temperatures and amount of water accumulated during the spring period led<br />to good cluster development in the summer period. The excellent summer temperatures and temperature fluctuations between day and night allowed aromatic substances to<br />accumulate on a large scale; the harvest period, characterised mainly by sunny days, enabled grapes to be picked at an optimal degree of ripeness. All this has translated<br />into highly structured wines with great aromatic expression.<br /><br />Technical notes<br />Wine Variety: Syrah, Vermentino<br />Alcohol content: 12%<br />Maturation: 3 months in steel tanks<br /><br />Vinification and ageing<br />Alìe's secret lies in the nature of the land, the vineyard management, and, of course, the human element. The grapes, once harvested, were transported to the cellar quickly<br />in order not to spoil or damage the bunches.One of the highlights of the production of Alìe was the pressing phase.Whole bunches were loaded into the press, an oxygen-<br />free environment. The pressure applied during this phase was extremely soft and gentle; this process, together with the carefully selected must and its subsequent<br />decanting for no fewer than 12 hours, helped to bring out the distinctive characteristics of this tempting rosé. The fermentations took place in stainless steel tanks at a<br />controlled temperature below 19° C. After maturing for a few months on fine lees, later including a period in the bottle, Alìe 2022 has turned out as persuasive and charming<br />as usual.<br /><br />Tasting notes<br />Alìe 2023 is characterised by its splendid pale pink colour. The bouquet is complex, with sensations that recall citrus notes, nectarine peach, floral notes of peony and rose.<br />It continues with notes of aromatic herbs, such as thyme, sage and rosemary. The iodine notes are beautiful. There is a notable harmony in taste and aroma. Your palate<br />will detect a beautiful freshness and notable flavour.<br />

Throughout the<br />summer the nights were characterised by pleasant coolness. Harvesting began in early September and until mid-October was interrupted repeatedly by single days of rain,<br />fortunately alternating with prolonged periods of sunshine. The white wines are fresh, with an intense olfactory profile.

The vines are between 60 and 90 years old. Old vines naturally produce low and therefore very<br />high quality yields. Traditionally, the SONNTALER is a blend of different Vernatsch varieties with a high percentage of Grauvernatsch. The ideal terroir and the traditional<br />ageing in large Slavonian wooden barrels give a wine with a complex aroma of raspberries, wild strawberries, cherries and red currants. The elegant, slender body is gripping<br />on the palate. Fine-grained tannins give the smooth, varietal fruitiness a long and hearty finish. SONNTALER: the classic.<br /><br />Vernatsch is considered the lightest red wine variety in the world, which is why the drinking temperature is particularly important: we recommend 13°C!<br />
