From the winery:
Winner of the 2025 Governor’s Cup
Native to the maritime growing regions of Liguria, Corsica and Sardinia, Vermentino has adapted splendidly to our warm climate in Piedmont Virginia. A spontaneously ingratiating white wine of self-proclaiming love for seafood and fish in all preparations, Vermentino’s dry but distinctly luscious minerality is complemented by generous palate weight and length, which we capture with fermentation and aging in stainless steel, under continuing lees contact of at least 7 or 8 months.
Full of lemon-blossom character, lychee and pear. At once juicy and elegant, delightfully dry, with some real structure, racy acidity and a long mineral finish. The first sip will make you crave for more.
