Description
A grape variety traditional to the Maremma, vermentino achieves ideal ripeness in these hills, thanks to the nearby Mediterranean, which tempers the hot weather, particularly in the Autumn. A small amount of sauvignon blanc confers increased aromatic complexity and a sturdier structure on the wine and the result is an appealing, easy-drinking white.
