The Tenuta Fertuna estate is in the northern part of Maremma, towards the province of Livorno, in an area that includes the DOC Monteregio di Massa Marittima appellation. Here the soil is rich in marl (schist rocks) and alberese (a calcareous substrata).
Made in stainless steel from only Vermentino grapes. A straw color with some green hues and a bouquet centered on chalk and flint notes with some hints of grapefruit and scents of pear. The mouthfeel is flavorful and saline with a nice acidity and a finish that is almost brackish and has a pleasing persistence.
