Querciabella Mongrana Maremma Toscana Bianco 2022
From Querciabella in Alberese, Maremma Toscana, the Mongrana Bianco 2022 is a refined Vermentino from iron-rich silt and alluvial sand soils. Hand-harvested from organic, biodynamic vineyards, it’s fermented in cement and stainless steel vats, offering a bright straw-yellow hue with green hues and vibrant complexity.
Tasting Notes
A crisp, vibrant white with citrus and saline finesse, showcasing Maremma’s terroir.
The nose reveals citrus, tangy yellow fruit, and jasmine, with hints of rosemary and honeysuckle. On the palate, it’s light-bodied and fresh, with bright acidity, a saline texture, and flavors of grapefruit, thyme, and a clean, mineral finish.
Awards and Accolades
The 2022 Mongrana Bianco earned 92 points from Wine Enthusiast for its balanced, elegant profile, 91 points from James Suckling for its vibrant fruit, and 90 points from John Gilman for its saline depth in the 2022 vintage.
