- Vivia 2022 is straw yellow with bright green hues. The nose delivers an intense impact with rich aromas of ripe fruit, especially pears, apples, and pineapple, perfectly harmoniously with delicate notes of orange blossoms and chamomile. The elegant bouquet is completed with hints of citrus fruit and Mediterranean herbs redolent of sage. The palate is lively and savoury, with a fresh finish that lingers, with notes of lemons and rosemary.
Upon arrival in the cellar, the grapes were gently pressed, and each grape variety was fermented separately to accentuate their unique characteristics. The must was cooled to a controlled temperature of 10° C (50°F) for 24 hours to favour natural clarification. The clarified must be transferred to temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks for alcoholic fermentation at 16 °C (61 °F). Vivia was aged on the lees for a short period in stainless steel tanks, approximately three months, before being bottled in January 2023.

| Winery | Located in the Maremma, Tuscany’s rising star of a region, the eye-wateringly beautiful Le Mortelle estate has belonged to the Antinori family since 1999. It is named after the wild myrrh – mortella – found in this part of the Tuscan coast, and indeed, the fostering of local flora and fauna is a central aim of the estate, which includes fifteen hectares of organic orchards in addition to the vineyards. Cabernet Franc has found a home from home in the warm, sea-breeze-tempered climate, bringing wonderful aroma and freshness to the red wine. For the white, classic coastal variety, Vermentino is joined by Viognier and Ansonica (the same as Sicily’s Inzolia), which is making a serious name for itself in the Maremma. |
