Bianco Toscana IGT “Caras Delicias ” 2021 – Cantine Belmesseri

Belmesseri Bianco Caras Delicias IGT is a wine made mostly from Vermentino with Sauvignon and other typical Lungiana vines, such as Albarola and Durella.
Recovering and developing native grape varieties starts from a strong knowledge of the territory, the features of the soil and the characteristics of the local grapes.
The Cantine Belmesseri winery pays homage to the tradition of Lungiana, starting with the choice of its name, which celebrates the 16th-century Lungiana poet Paolo Belmesseri.
What’s more, the property comprises the poet’s birthplace, where, in addition to the winery, there is also a mill with an olive press, and vines are grown along the banks of the Torrente Verde stream.
Two of the seven hectares of wine cultivation are dedicated to native vines arranged in terraces, as dictated by tradition.
The typical alluvial soil, the abundance of cold water and humidity, together with the choice to keep the buildings in local stone, are some of the elements that generate a totally natural thermal control.
In respect of the territory, fine and unique wines such as Belmesseri Bianco Caras Delicias IGT are produced here.
This is a Tuscan IGT white wine that is produced with classic white fermentation in steel and immediate separation of the skins from the must.
It is aged on noble lees for four months with regular stirring.
Belmesseri Bianco Caras Delicias IGT shows itself to be a lean, savory wine.
Its aromas are citrusy, with hints of tropical fruit, making it a very fresh white.
One of its main qualities is its drinkability.
90/100 from James Suckling
