✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Banfi's Florus Late Harvest is a brilliant revival of Montalcino's most ancient liquid treasure: Moscadello. Long before Brunello captured the world's attention, the sweet, aromatic wines of Moscadello were highly prized during the Renaissance, famously celebrated by the 17th-century physician and poet Francesco Redi. Crafted from 100% Moscadello (Moscato Bianco) grapes cultivated in the estate's sun-drenched, calcareous clay vineyards, Florus is produced using the Vendemmia Tardiva method. The grapes are left to wither on the vine, concentrating their natural sugars, luscious stone fruit aromas, and vibrant acidity. Following a slow, temperature-controlled fermentation, the wine is aged in French oak barriques, resulting in a rich, golden nectar defined by complex notes of wild honey, dried apricot, citrus peel, and warm spices, all balanced by a remarkably fresh finish.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Banfi blev grundlagt i 1978 af de italiensk-amerikanske brødre John og Harry Mariani og har sit hjerte omkring den historiske middelalderfæstning Castello di Poggio alle Mura i toscanske Montalcino. Vingården spillede en afgørende rolle i den moderne renæssance for Brunello di Montalcino gennem banebrydende klonforskning i Sangiovese, topmoderne vinifikationsteknikker og et kompromisløst fokus på miljømæssig bæredygtighed. Med førsteklasses vinmarker i både Toscana og Piemonte forener huset klassisk italiensk vintradition med moderne præcision. Banfi er internationalt anerkendt for sine stilskabende Brunello di Montalcino-aftapninger, udtryksfulde Supertoscanere som Cum Laude og Belnero samt en alsidig portefølje af elegante enkeltdrue- og mousserende vine.
