Vermentino

Origin: Vermentino is primarily grown in the coastal regions of Italy, particularly in Sardinia, as well as in France and Corsica (where it is known as Rolle).

Production: This white grape variety produces light to medium-bodied wines that are typically fermented in stainless steel to preserve their fresh and fruity character.

Taste: Vermentino wines are known for their bright acidity and light, citrusy flavors. Common tasting notes include lemon, lime, and green apple, with hints of floral and herbal aromas. They often have a crisp, clean finish.

Pairings: Vermentino pairs well with seafood, light salads, and poultry dishes. It also complements dishes with fresh herbs, light pasta dishes, and mild cheeses.
