2018 Castellare Le Ginestre di Toscana
The 2018 Castellare Le Ginestre di Toscana showcases Tuscany's potential for white wines, primarily using international grape varieties. This delightful blend combines the depth of Chardonnay with the aromatic notes of Sauvignon Blanc. It features a straw color and aromas of yellow peach, boxwood, elderberry, and gooseberry. On the palate, it is round and well-structured, with a fine acidity that adds freshness.
Castellare di Castellina was established in the 1970s through the merger of four estates, aiming to produce high-quality wines. The winery values tradition in vineyard care and adheres to the Chianti Classico regulations by using indigenous Tuscan grape varieties. Innovation is evident in their experimental vineyard collaborations with universities and the introduction of barrique aging, guided by renowned oenologist Emile Peynaud.
This story emphasizes the blend of tradition and innovation in winemaking, honoring the Mezzadri, who shaped the Chianti landscape. Castellare has dedicated a sculpture to their legacy, celebrating the hard work and joy of winemaking.
