2.6/5 (5 customers)

The first certified organic vintage, the 2014 Vermentino offers lovely citrus aromas, which carry through on the palate with a subtle bitterness that creates a delightful finish. This fresh, lively, and well-balanced palate is the result of a selective harvest carried out in the early morning. Meticulous craftsmanship has produced an elegant wine.
