  • Goedhuis, June 2022

    A gorgeous glassful of Tuscan sunshine. This thirst-quenching organic white is full of zest and verve. Very pale in colour and scented with citrus and white flowers, the palate has a salty mineral edge that cuts through the balanced and textured weight. This is absolutely delicious!

Tenuta Le Calcinaie is owned and run by one of the most delightful and passionate winemakers in all of Italy, Simone Santini. He produces exceptional organically certified Vernaccia from his estate that he purchased in 1984 and built up slowly to its first commercial release in 1993. Simone’s vineyards are planted in a unique terroir. Richly laden with ancient sea fossils (similar to the soil in Chablis), these calcium-rich shells dissolve into the earth during rainstorms. This water is then absorbed by the vine adding a soft salinity to his whites. Extended lees maceration creates additional complexity and roundness. His use of stainless steel tanks on many of his wines ensures exceptional purity of fruit which is long lived and refreshing, yet full on the palate.Read less

Region

Vernaccia di San Gimignano

San Gimignano is a picturesque medieval village whose sandstone towers rise boldly from the southern Tuscan hillsides. Unbeknown to countless tourists, it is surrounded by vines of which Vernaccia is the main grape variety. For many years, this distinctive grape had virtually fallen into oblivion, until 1966 when it became a DOC (and then a DOCG in 1993), saving it from possiblefuture extinction. Other varieties - Tuscan and international - can also be found in this upcomingarea.
