Description
Bòggina B is produced from Tuscan Trebbiano vines in Valdarno, planted in the ‘70s in the “Poggio” vineyard. This area has been known since 1300 for its quality, and the wines were sent to the popes in Rome and the courts of Florence. Bòggina B was born in 2014 as a tribute to the renowned white wines from Valdarno of the past. The wine is matured “Sur lies” for over 15 months in specially-selected French oak tonneaux. Constant batonnage is employed during the early months, gradually decreasing over time.
“This is fresh and perfumed with notes of beeswax, spicy herbs and orange blossom. Nuts. Honey blossom. Beautiful fruit with savory undertones and wet stone minerality. Full-bodied, so persistent and complex with depth to the fruit and stunning acidity. The finish is long and linear, changing from mineral to a steely character at the very end. Beautiful as always. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.”
98 points, James Suckling

Chenin Blanc

It has a particularly tropical character and a very fresh feel on the palate, with steely minerality and a zippy background acidity giving invigorating tartness to keep the wine luscious and buoyant. The rounded, approachable finish has good length.
