Chiarofiore

Chiarofiore is a distinctive organic white wine from Tuscany, crafted with Trebbiano and Vermentino grapes. Tunia harvests them in four stages to capture a range of ripeness and flavors. Early-picked Trebbiano grapes provide vivid acidity, while Vermentino and fully ripe Trebbiano, fermented on their skins, add body and subtle tannins. Finally, a small portion of late-harvest Trebbiano, partly touched by noble rot, lends delicate sweetness and smoother texture.

After extended time on the lees in steel tanks, Chiarofiore develops a striking amber hue with glints of pink. Aromas can begin with a gentle note of spice and clove, evolving into dried apricot, orange peel, and a mild caramel touch. On the palate, the wine feels fresh and slightly saline, balanced by gentle tannins that bring a pleasant grip. Its fullness lingers, revealing more nuance with each sip.

Though officially a white wine, Chiarofiore’s color and structure place it among orange wines, making it a fascinating choice for those seeking something beyond the ordinary. Enjoy it at around 14°C, letting it breathe a few moments before tasting. Pair it with mature cheeses, white meats, or vegetable dishes, and discover how its layered character unfolds with every sip.
