ZaZaZa - 'Bianco Baby' - by Martoccia

$26.00

Importer’s notes: On a chain of hills between Siena to the north and Monte Amiatato to the south lies the medieval town of Montalcino, famous for Brunello di Montalcino. The Brunelli family has called this place home for generations. After a brief stint in the city in the 1960s, following hard times in the Italian agricultural sector, Mauro Brunelli and Anna Savini returned to their ancestral home and farm. With just three hectares of farm, they laid the foundation for wine production. In the 1990s, under the guidance of their son Luca, the family produced their first wines.

Today, the Brunelli farm has 25 hectares, 15 of which are vineyards. Six hectares are registered as DOCG Brunello de Montalcino. Martoccia is committed to low-yield vineyard cultivation. The vineyards yield quantities far below the 80 hundred kilograms expected by production specifications to ensure the highest quality grapes for their wines.

On the sun-warmed hills of Montalcino, where stone walls glow gold and the air smells faintly of wild herbs, this white blend finds its rhythm. A trio of Trebbiano, Malvasia, and Chardonnay comes together like instruments in a slow Italian afternoon — bright, layered, and full of life.

Fermented and aged in stainless steel, the wine stays honest and vibrant: peach, citrus, and soft hay hum through a light body with a clean, mineral finish. It’s the taste of sunlight on limestone, of simplicity done well.
