Lutelia is Ricasoli’s contemporary expression of Tuscan Chardonnay. Made entirely from Chardonnay, it combines ripe fruit with plenty of freshness and a subtle layer of texture from time in second-use tonneaux. It is a clean, lively white with enough weight and character to work with food, but equally good as an aperitif.
Tasting note
Pale straw in colour, with aromas of pear, ripe apple, white peach and a little exotic fruit, with subtle floral and honeyed notes. The palate is fresh and rounded, with citrus and ripe orchard fruit, a gentle savoury texture and a lightly mineral, saline finish. An easy wine to enjoy but with enough character to make it interesting.
