Esteemed Tuscan wine producer Marchesi Frescobaldi announced the release of the new vintage of Castello Pomino Pomino Bianco DOC, now available in international markets. Crafted in one of Tuscany's most distinctive high-altitude white wine regions, the new vintage reflects the estate's hallmark elegance, freshness, and aromatic precision.
A historic estate nestled in the wooded hills of the Florentine mountains, Castello Pomino has long been recognised for its exceptional suitability for white wine production. With vineyards reaching up to 700 metres in altitude, the estate benefits from a cool, ventilated microclimate that enhances aromatic clarity and preserves natural acidity. First identified in 1716 as one of Tuscany's most prized wine territories, the estate continues to stand apart for its luminous, mineral-driven wines.
It is a highly refined and elegant blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco, expresses this unique environment with balance and finesse. The 2025 vintage was shaped by a favourable growing season: mild early conditions supported steady vine development, while a warm June was followed by cooler-than-average temperatures in July and August, preserving varietal aromas.
The grapes were harvested with great care and immediately processed in an oxygen-free environment upon entering the winery. Fermentation took place primarily in stainless steel, with a small portion in French oak barriques, followed by bottle ageing to enhance harmony and complexity.
It shows a clear, vibrant straw yellow hue. The nose opens with citrus and white floral notes, and on the palate, the wine is fresh and mineral, with floral notes complemented by toasted and creamy hints from oak aging. Bright citrus notes carry through to a persistent, balanced finish.
