2024 Donna Olimpia 1898 Bolgheri Bianco is an elegant and characterful white wine from the Tuscan coast, crafted from Vermentino, Viognier, and Petit Manseng. The wine unites fresh citrus and white flowers with subtle mineral tones, a hint of honey, and a wonderful saline-tinged freshness. A full-bodied and harmonious Bolgheri Bianco that works as both an aperitif and an excellent gastronomic white wine.
Donna Olimpia 1898 is located in the heart of the famous Bolgheri area on the Tuscan coast. The estate’s history dates back to 1898, when it was named after Olimpia Alliata di Biserno, wife of Gherardo della Gherardesca, to mark the couple's 25th wedding anniversary.
Bolgheri is often associated with great red wines, but the area also offers excellent conditions for elegant and aromatic white wines. Donna Olimpia Bolgheri Bianco is made from Vermentino, Viognier, and Petit Manseng, three grape varieties that complement each other beautifully. Vermentino contributes citrus, freshness, and the characteristic saline minerality; Viognier adds floral notes and aromatic body; while Petit Manseng provides structure, ripe fruit, and complexity.
Following pressing and clarification, the wine is fermented in temperature-controlled steel tanks. It is then aged on the fine lees with bâtonnage, which adds more body and a creamy texture without masking the wine's fresh and mineral character.
The result is an exciting white Bolgheri where the ripe fruit of the Mediterranean climate meets the freshness of the Tuscan coast. It possesses both immediate charm and sufficient structure to suit a wide variety of dishes.
Bolgheri is situated on the Tuscan Mediterranean coast in the province of Livorno and is one of Italy's most famous wine regions. The combination of a warm Mediterranean climate and cooling sea breezes allows the grapes to ripen optimally while maintaining freshness and aromatic finesse.
Donna Olimpia's vineyards are located in Bolgheri on soil characterized by elements such as sand and silt. The proximity to the sea and constant ventilation help create white wines with a unique combination of ripe fruit, crisp acidity, and a characteristic salty, mineral sensation.
This very balance makes Bolgheri Bianco an interesting alternative to the region's famous red wines – and Donna Olimpia demonstrates just how elegant and gastronomic a white wine from the Tuscan coast can be.
Nose: Elegant and aromatic with citrus, white flowers, and fresh fruit accompanied by mineral nuances, light honey, and fine sweet-toned notes.
Taste: Full-bodied and harmonious with fresh citrus and ripe white fruit. The wine has a lovely texture and a distinct saline-tinged minerality, which provides freshness and balance to the ripe fruit.
Aftertaste: Long and pleasant with citrus, minerality, and a light honeyed nuance. The finish is fresh, full, and persistent.
Best served at 10-12°C in a spacious white wine glass. Avoid serving the wine ice-cold, as a slightly higher temperature allows the floral, fruity, and mineral aromas to unfold better. The wine is delightful to drink young for its freshness, but its body and structure also allow for a few years of development in the bottle.
