Tasting notes
Ripe stone fruit aromas with preserved lemon characters and floral notes. The palate has apricot, citrus peel and grapefruit pith, an appealing texture and minerality, fresh acidity and a gently savoury finish.
Food match
Delicious with fish and seafood, and simple pasta dishes.
Vermentino thrives near the sea, such as on Sicily's west coast where these grapes are cultivated - also the source of some of the island's best Grillo. Fermentation is in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks followed by a short period on fine lees.
