ABOUT THIS WINE:
Tifosi
Vermentino
Our Vermentino from Gold Medal-winning Tifosi is a brilliant spectacle of captivating flavors and thrilling textures. Prepare yourself to be enchanted by juicy stone fruit, zesty citrus, and mouthwatering acidity. The Vermentino grape is native to Italy and feels right at home in Sicily’s Mediterranean climate. This versatile performer can produce a range of styles, from lean and mineral-driven to bright and tropical. Our Vermentino balances both roles. Perhaps the best thing about this lesser-known local grape is that audiences outside Italy have yet to recognize its stunning reputation. This means tickets are cheap, for now. Good Vermentino is an extremely high-value wine to add to your collection. If this is Vermentino’s debut at your dinner table, we encourage you to “sip” back and enjoy the show.

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:
Lime
Pear
Almond
Striking aromas of lime are joined by subtle hints of tropical fruit. The full-bodied palate is uplifted by powerful acidity, which provides a firm structure to support rich fruit flavors. Notes of ripe pear and green apple precede Vermentino’s signature finish of green almond.
