Tasting profile
Structure: full-bodied, high acidity, sweet
Terenzi was the first to plant Petit Manseng in the Maremma, drying the grapes before a long élevage in small barrels — the variety's natural high acidity carries a rich, honeyed sweetness of dried apricot and mango without turning heavy, a Tuscan answer to Jurançon.
Serving: Serve at 8–10 °C.
