Le Rime  Toscana IGT  2023  VARIETIES  Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio  DESCRIPTION  Captivating and easy to drink, Le Rime perfectly accompanies an aperitif  with friends.  The winter was mild, with temperatures slightly above seasonal averages.  The first few days of April were characterized by episodes of cold return  with some budding damage.  Rainfall for the first four months of the year was slightly below the  statistical data of recent years. In May and June rainfall was extremely  heavy, reaching two hundred millimeters of cumulative rainfall and  twenty-eight out of sixty rainy days.  Once the early summer months were over, providentially the weather  pattern had a radical change with excellent sunshine and high  temperatures. The Pinot Grigio harvest began on the twenty-third of  August and the Chardonnay harvest on the thirty-first of August.  Pale straw yellow color; fruity with tropical as well as white peach, apple  and floral hints; very savory, with balanced acidity and lingering finish.  Excellent for the whole meal, it pairs perfectly with light and fresh dishes,  such as tomato and feta salad or beef carpaccio with arugula and  parmesan,  TECHNICAL NOTES Fermentation: in temperature-controlled (13-15°C) stainless steel tanks.  Aging: in stainless-steel tanks for around 2 months  Alcohol: 12,5%  Suggested serving temperature : 10-12°C
