Description

Pomino Vinsanto embodies the Tuscan tradition to perfection. The combination of the Pomino terroir, the typical varieties and the historic production process result in unique sensations: sweetness and freshness are perfectly balanced. Prolonged drying and long maturation in the wood give an intense and complex wine with an intriguing and varied bouquet.

Castello Pomino is a hidden treasure among the Frescobaldi estates. It reveals itself to those who pass through the first woods of the Florentine mountains, with vines climbing to an altitude of 700 metres.

The castle dates back to the 1500s and is well-known for its excellent location. However, the most significant testimony dates back to 1716, when Grand Duke Cosimo III de' Medici identified the four most suitable territories in Tuscany for producing Quality Wines.

The document, considered the forerunner of modern DOCs, lists the Pomino land along with Chianti, Carmignano and Val d'Arno di Sopra.

Since that date, the wines of Castello Pomino have won many awards: they were awarded in 1873 at the Universal Exhibition in Vienna and in 1878 won the Gold Medal at the Paris Expo, the highest international recognition at the time.

Today, Castello Pomino still stands for Tuscan winemaking tradition, combined with a desire to innovate and expert know-how. Brightness and minerality for a signature Tuscan wine.
