2024 Piccini Collezione Privata White, Tuscany

From the sun warmed vineyards of Tuscany, Piccini has long been a trusted name in Italian winemaking, with family roots stretching back to 1882 when Angiolo Piccini founded the estate in Castellina in Chianti. Today the fourth generation continues to craft approachable yet characterful wines that celebrate regional tradition and modern drinkability. Collezione Privata Bianco is a fresh, vibrant blend designed to capture the easygoing charm of Tuscan white wine, shaped by Mediterranean sunshine, cooling breezes and carefully selected fruit from hillside vineyards.

A pale straw colour with bright golden tinges introduces an inviting aromatic profile. Notes of ripe pear, white peach and citrus blossom mingle with hints of tropical fruit, fresh herbs and a gentle floral lift. There is an immediate sense of warmth and openness, a bouquet that feels both generous and refreshing.

The palate is lively and supple, delivering flavours of lemon zest, green apple and nectarine supported by crisp acidity and a lightly rounded texture. Subtle almond and mineral nuances add interest through the finish, keeping the wine balanced and wonderfully food friendly. Best enjoyed in its youth over the next two to three years while its bright fruit and easy charm are at their peak.

Perfect for relaxed Italian style dining, it pairs beautifully with seafood pasta, grilled chicken salads, antipasti platters or simple margherita pizza. Piccini Collezione Privata White brings a taste of Tuscan sunshine to the table, ideal for long lunches, terrace gatherings and moments where uncomplicated pleasure and good company take centre stage.
