Il Borro Lamelle Toscana Bianco 750ml

Il Borro's 2024 'Lamelle' Toscana Bianco comes from Ferragamo family's sprawling Tuscan estate in the Valdarno, where Vittoria Ferragamo and her team have spent two decades building a reputation that extends well beyond the Super Tuscan reds the property is known for. Lamelle is their white wine project, a blend built primarily around Trebbiano and Viognier, sourced from vineyards planted on the estate's clay and sandstone soils in the hills above the Arno. The 2024 growing season in Tuscany brought a mix of cooler spells and warm, dry stretches that tend to favor freshness in white grapes, and that shows in the glass here — this is a wine built for brightness rather than weight. Expect orchard fruit (green apple, white peach) layered with notes of citrus pith and white flowers, with Viognier lending a touch of stone fruit richness and a soft, textured mid-palate that keeps it from feeling austere. The finish is clean and saline, with enough acidity to keep you reaching for another sip. This isn't a wine that needs a special occasion. It's an easy weeknight pour with grilled branzino, a plate of cacio e pepe, or simple roasted chicken with lemon and herbs. The richer Viognier component also gives it enough backbone to stand up to dishes with a little more fat — think burrata with olive oil, or a creamy risotto — without losing its sense of lift. Il Borro has built its name on ambitious reds, so a bottle like this is a good reminder that the estate's white wine program deserves equal attention, especially in a vintage like 2024 that gave winemakers fruit with real tension and clarity. We've got it in stock at Off Premise for anyone looking to explore what Tuscany's whites can do beyond the usual Vernaccia or Vermentino — a solid pour for fans of texture-driven, food-friendly Italian whites.
