Description
The estate of Pomino dates from 1500, the year the castle of the same name was built, and from the beginning has been famous for the excellence of its location. In the documentation from the year 1716 when the Grand Duke Cosimo III de' Medici identified the four most highly prized territories of Tuscany for the production of wines - the notice is considered the precursor of the modern "DOC"
(Denominazione di Origine Controllata, or Controlled Designation of Origin) - the territory of Pomino is listed alongside Chianti, Carmignano and Val d'Arno di Sopra. At the World's Fair of 1873 in Vienna the wines of Pomino won awards, and in 1878 took the gold medal at the World's Fair in Paris, the highest international recognition of its time.
Tasting
Visually, the wine is clear and bright. The glowing hues in the glass recall the bright sunny days of the 2020 harvest at the Castello Pomino estate.
Like the colourful blossoming of flowers in spring, the bouquet is rich with floral notes, with honeysuckle as the prevalent aroma.
The aromas of Pomino Bianco are markedly persistent when you taste it. This is, in part, thanks to the wine being aged on lees in the months following vinification.
