Discovering the wine region of Montecarlo
Tuscan DOC (1969) on hills north-east of Lucca between the Apennines and Mediterranean, varied soils, temperate climate. Original Bianco blending Trebbiano (40-60%) with Sémillon, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Bianco, Vermentino, Sauvignon and Roussanne: dry and delicate with citrus, white flowers, apple and mineral hints, fine balance — rare international blend in Tuscany. Sangiovese-led Rosso (50-75%) with Canaiolo, Ciliegiolo and Cabernet: bright ruby, fruity and sapid.
Discover the grape variety: Pinot blanc
Round, supple whites with a soft palate, showing discreet aromas of apple, pear, fresh almond, white flowers and brioche notes. Moderate acidity, light finish. Star of Crémant d'Alsace (fine, taut sparkling) and base of Edelzwicker. Grown in Germany (Weissburgunder, Baden-Württemberg), northern Italy (Pinot Bianco, Alto Adige), Austria and Luxembourg. A white mutation of Pinot Noir.
