Bright, effortless, and full of coastal charm, the 2024 Albablu captures Bolgheri’s maritime spirit in every sip. Pale straw in colour with glints of green, it opens with delicate aromas of white blossom, lemon zest and wild herbs drifting over a whisper of sea spray. The palate is zesty and poised, a dance of citrus, green apple and fresh pear carried by a subtle salinity that mirrors its Tyrrhenian origins. A gentle texture from lees ageing lends body and grace to the wine’s brisk, mineral backbone, finishing long, pure, and quietly refreshing.

For when: the sun’s out and lunch lasts all afternoon.
Pairs with: grilled prawns, linguine alle vongole, or a simple burrata salad.
If this wine were a feeling, it’d be bare feet on warm sand with a cool wind in your hair.

Grown organically in the light, sandy soils at the foot of Castagneto Carducci, Albablu is a testament to the meticulous craft of Campo alle Comete, where the stars, sea and soil all seem to conspire for brilliance. Winemaker Antonio Capaldo’s gentle approach, from whole-bunch pressing to cool fermentation and weekly lees stirring, brings Vermentino’s natural freshness to life. Elegant yet spontaneous, Albablu is Bolgheri bottled:  radiant, refined, and brimming with Mediterranean light.
