Poggio alle Gazze dell' Ornellaia 2022 (750 ml)
93 poena – James Suckling
Poggio alle Gazze duguje svoj elegantni mediteranski stil jedinstvenoj mikroklimi imanja. Ima intenzivnu slamnato žutu boju. Rano branje grožđa omogućava da u potpunosti dođu do izražaja citrusne i egzotične arome, koje prate note mente. Aromatična svježina potvrđuje se i na nepcu, uz izvanredan balans dužine i kiselosti.
Berba iz 2022. godine predstavlja kupažu od 53% Sauvignon Blanca, 37% Vermentina, 6% Viogniera, 2% Verdicchija i 2% Semillona. Nakon pažljive selekcije, cijeli grozdovi su veoma sporo i postepeno presovani, uz posebnu pažnju da se spriječi oksidacija ploda. Nakon statične dekantacije od 12 sati, različiti dijelovi mošta su stavljeni u barike (25% nove i 25% korišćene), u čelične rezervoare i betonske tankove. Vino ne prolazi kroz malolaktičnu fermentaciju. Dozrijeva na finom talogu 6 mjeseci, uz redovan bâtonnage tokom tog perioda, nakon čega slijedi finalna kupaža. Nakon blagog bistrenja, vino je dodatno odležavalo 12 mjeseci u boci prije puštanja na tržište.

Poggio alle Gazze owes its elegant Mediterranean style to the estate’s unique microclimate. It displays an intense straw yellow colour. The early harvesting of the grapes allows all the citrus and exotic fruit flavours to shine through ensued by minty notes. The aromatic freshness is confirmed on the palate with exceptional balance between length and acidity.
In the 2022 vintage, the wine is a blend of 53% Sauvignon Blanc, 37% Vermentino, 6% Viognier, 2% Verdicchio and 2% Semillon. After a meticulous selection, the whole clusters were given a very slow, gradual pressing, while great care was exercised to prevent oxidation of the fruit. After static decantation for 12 hours, the different lots of must were put into barriques (25% new and 25% used), in steel tanks and in concrete vats. The wine does not go through malolactic fermentation. It is matured on the fine lees for 6 months, with regular bâtonnage throughout the period, followed by the assemblage of the final blend. After a light fining, it rested an additional 12 months in the bottle before release.
