GRAPE: Vermentino
REGION: Italy, Sardinia
 
Pale straw yellow with greenish glints, this Vermentino offers intense floral and fresh-fruited aromas, with hints of citrus zest and white peach. The palate is crisp and persistent, showing lively acidity and a characteristic slight bitterness on the finish that gives it personality and drive. Elegant yet vibrant, it captures the coastal brightness of Sardinian terroir.
 
FOOD PAIRING: Perfect with grilled seabass, spaghetti alle vongole, lemon-dressed octopus salad, soft goat cheeses, shellfish risotto or prawn carpaccio, and herbed focaccia with olive oil.
