Vermentino, Malvasia, and Trebbiano: A Tuscan Blend Like No Other!

This wine, however, deviates from Tuscany's traditional white winemaking due to its distinctly radical expressive quality.

The winemaking process itself isn't revolutionary; in fact, it's a simple and delicate one, including a brief, overnight skin contact. This step is more about lowering the grape temperature than for extraction purposes.

The magic, the daring, the vision (?) unfolds during aging: the wine ferments in barriques and remains there for the next two years, on its fine lees, without racking or even topping up. One might think of a wine abandoned—loved, desired, and then cast aside. In reality, Damiano, with his incredibly refined palate, gambled (and won) on the quality of his grapes.

The result is a "sous voile" (under flor) wine with a significant gustatory impact. It combines oxidative notes with pungent freshness, bound together in a floating elegance, exploring the lesser-known edges of fruity flavors like apricot and loquat, ginger and hazelnut. It finishes fresh with a long aromatic persistence of balsamic citrus and great substance.

From the producer

Cantina Anonima

Cantina anonima è una piccola azienda che si trova sulle immediate colline a nord di Lucca. Nasce da un'idea di Damiano Donati, talentuoso ed eclettico Chef lucchese, che insieme all'amico ed esperto di vini Ruggero Baronti, ha dato vita a questo interessante progetto. Vigna di 1,5 ha in un contesto incontaminato ed una produzione minuscola. Vini veri, dritti, che ci hanno colpito per la loro immediatezza ed onestà.
