Ansonica Costa dell'Argentario
Wine · PDO · 5 municipalities
Established in 1996, the Ansonica Costa dell'Argentario DOC distinguishes itself from neighboring Tuscan appellations by focusing exclusively on a single white wine style, permitting no sub-types or red variants. Cultivated across five specific municipalities, including the island territory of Isola del Giglio, the production rules require a minimum of 85% Ansonica grapes. To safeguard quality, any new vineyards must meet a density requirement of at least 3,300 vines per hectare, yielding a wine with a minimum alcohol content of 10.5% vol. This highly specialized focus yields a dry, soft, and harmonious white wine defined by a straw-yellow hue and a slightly fruity aroma.
