SALCHETO Miele dei Colli Senesi – Honey

HK$198.00

A wildflower honey from the hills of Siena, harvested by 15 Italian bee colonies housed in hives placed along the edges of the Salcheto vineyards— where the bees also support the natural pollination of wildflowers and plants throughout the estate.

Unpasteurised and cold-extracted from the frames, the honey retains its full nutritional properties and the vivid scent of the land.

Its lightly amber colour is the signature of the terroir: the more continental climate brought by proximity to the Apennines delays flowering, leading the bees to gather in the summer months the honeydew — sweet secretions from woodland trees and shrubs that enrich the honey with minerals and lend it a distinctly complex aromatic character.

Natural crystallization, which intensifies at lower temperatures, is not a flaw but a mark of quality: evidence of a high pollen concentration and the complete absence of heat treatment.

Tuscany

Tuscany is known for its landscapes, history and artistic legacy. As the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance, the region has an incredible art and architecture heritage.
Tuscany is certainly the most famous of all Italian regions for its wines. Sangiovese reigns in all its forms in the vineyards of Chianti but also Montepulciano and Montalcino.
It is also the land of the Super Tuscan, the Bordeaux blend style that laid the foundation of some of the greatest Italian wines.
As a pairing with these wines, Tuscany cuisine is based on simplicity but high quality and certainly topped with Tuscan olive oil, recognized all over the world.
