A vibrant and expressive Vermentino from Sicily's west coast
Ripe stone fruit aromas with preserved lemon characters and floral notes. The palate has apricot, citrus peel and grapefruit pith, an appealing texture and minerality, fresh acidity and a gently savoury finish.
Established in 2003, Adria Vini is a winemaking venture jointly owned by Boutinot and Araldica Castelvero, the leading co-operative in the Monferrato hills of Piemonte. The aim is to produce authentic, well-priced still and sparkling wines from local grape varieties. All aspects of production, from grape selection through to vinification, maturation, blending and bottling are meticulously overseen by Araldica's winemaking team of Claudio Manera and Lella Burdese. Sourced from a range of private growers and cooperatives, with whom have long term relationships, principally in Veneto, Friuli, Lombardy, Sicily, Puglia, Abruzzo and Sardinia.
Vermentino thrives near the sea, such as on Sicily's west coast where these grapes are cultivated.
Fermentation is in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks followed by a short period on fine lees
Delicious with fish and seafood, and simple pasta dishes.
