As evening approaches, say “buona sera” to our crisp, Gold Medal-winning Vermentino
ABOUT THIS WINE:

Schema
Vermentino
Sicilians have been making wine for thousands of years, and our 2020 Vermentino was grown on the same beautiful sloping hillsides that produced wine when Caesar ruled Rome. The Mediterranean Sea provides such a perfect climate for viticulture that we use the word 'Mediterranean' to describe any similar climate around the world. The wine is fresh and new, but our winemaking is decidedly Old World. But enough about the history — this wine is present, and it's going places. The previous vintage earned 90 points and a Gold Medal at the 2021 San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge. This newest release, with its crisp acidity and beautiful aromatics, won't be too far behind! Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.

WINE REGION:

Sicily / Sicilia
Even among Italy's diverse wine regions, Sicily offers something unique. Abundant sunshine, varied volcanic terroirs, cool coastal breezes and drying African winds make it a perfect place for growing vines. The island is home to many indigenous grape varieties, featuring reds such as Sangiovese, Nero d'Avola and Frappato, and popular white varieties including Vermentino, Catarratto and Zibibbo. As the largest island in the Mediterranean, Sicily's position between Europe, Africa and the Levant has long made it a strategic location. The Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, Normans and Arabs have all at various times controlled Sicily, and left their mark on its 4,000-year-old winemaking tradition.

TASTING NOTES:

Guava

Melon

Citrus Blossom
White flower and cantaloupe aromas swirl out of the glass and unite with notes of lychee, guava, and honeydew. A briny maritime influence gives each sip an almost salty texture and balances perfectly with bright acidity, making every sip linger on the palate and in your mind.
