Description
What kind of wine is it
San Angelo by Banfi is a still white wine from Tuscany that clearly expresses the character of Pinot Grigio. In the glass, it displays a pale straw yellow colour, introducing an intense aromatic profile, floral and fresh. On the nose, distinct notes of apple, peach and citrus emerge, leading to a pleasantly fresh and savoury sip, characterised by an elegant and straightforward style.
Where does it come from
This white wine originates in Tuscany, where the sunny climate encourages optimal ripening and a well-defined expression of the grape variety. The vineyards are cultivated using the high cordon training system. The area of origin is distinguished by deep soils composed of pebbles, silt and sand, with a fine-grained structure. This specific soil composition is directly reflected in the glass, ensuring a clear savoury perception and clean aromas.
How is it produced
Vinification involves fermentation at a controlled temperature in stainless steel vats. This process preserves the natural fragrance of the grapes. At the table, it proves ideal for accompanying delicate starters and dishes based on lean fish. Thanks to its smooth structure, it also pairs naturally with white meats, enhancing light preparations based on poultry or veal with balance.
