2023 Sàgona - Sàgona Bianco

$88.00

Producer | Sàgona

Region | Tuscany

Variety | Trebbiano

Alcohol | 12.5%

A graceful and mineral-driven white made from Trebbiano Toscano, sourced from Sàgona’s high-altitude vineyards: 550 metres in Sàgona and 600 metres in Campo Maggio, in the hills of Pratomagno. Fermentation and ageing take place in second-passage barriques, where the wine rests for about 10 months on its lees. The result is layered yet pure, with notes of citrus, orchard fruit, and almond, wrapped in a fine texture and lifted by mountain freshness.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER

Sàgona is located in Pratomagno, in the province of Arezzo. This small mountain farm is in hilly, wild territory, 500 meters above sea level. Far from tourist sites and surrounded by dry stone walls, the farm sits in a narrow valley. It is part of a diverse ecosystem of vineyards, olive trees, fruit orchards, and potato and legume crops. The vineyard is managed by Daniele Corrotti with the help of his family and friends.

The vineyards is made up of very small plots totalling four hectares and is farmed according to organic principles. The wines are made from only native varieties: Sangiovese for the most part, but also Malvasia Nera, Ciliegiolo, Canaiolo, Colorino, Malvasia Bianca and Trebbiano. Sàgona’s wines speak of the mountains, combining unmistakable, elegant Tuscan, flavours, with the rustic, peasant character of the area.
