On the palate, it is a still, dry white wine with controlled designation of origin, able to harmoniously combine \u003cstrong\u003efreshness and structure\u003c\/strong\u003e in a rich and enveloping sip. Resulting from fermentation in stoneware and untoasted wood, the flavour profile is defined by a distinct mineral tension that fades into an \u003cstrong\u003earomatic and persistent finish\u003c\/strong\u003e. Thanks to its natural balance, this wine shows excellent ageing potential and pairs perfectly with fish dishes or cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe vineyards grow in the southernmost area of Bolgheri, in Tuscany, on hills facing the sea and surrounded by dense woods. The plots, with northern exposure, are distributed between the lower hills and higher plots. The \u003cstrong\u003eMediterranean climate\u003c\/strong\u003e, tempered by sea breezes, ensures ideal brightness and moderate rainfall. The soils have a \u003cstrong\u003ecomplex geological composition\u003c\/strong\u003e, characterised by clay, limestone, marl, sand and flysch. This richness of soil gives the wine a defined expression and a \u003cstrong\u003edistinct territorial imprint\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction begins with the \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvesting\u003c\/strong\u003e of the grapes, followed by fermentation at a controlled temperature. The must ferments partly in ceramic stoneware vessels and partly in \u003cstrong\u003euntoasted wooden barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, whose staves are bent with steam to respect the original aromatic profile without imparting intrusive notes. Ageing continues on fine lees for nine months in the same containers, thus enriching the wine's texture. The process concludes with an \u003cstrong\u003eessential maturation phase\u003c\/strong\u003e to integrate the components and stabilise the wine's profile.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn on the Argentiera Estate from a vineyard overlooking the sea, Scenario Bolgheri Bianco is an ambitious project aimed at enhancing the potential of \u003cstrong\u003epure Vermentino\u003c\/strong\u003e and its natural aptitude for ageing. The meticulous vinification in \u003cstrong\u003estoneware spheres\u003c\/strong\u003e and in untoasted wooden containers, with staves bent by steam, enriches its elegant structure.
