San Felice Vermentino 2019
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 on the wine increased aromatic complexity and a sturdier structure, and the result is an appealing, easy-drinking white.

Colour

Straw yellow.

Bouquet

On the nose, scents of grapefruit citrus emerge, along with spring blossoms and newly-mown hay.

Flavour

The palate shows a refreshing crispness, with subtle citrus in the background.

Pairing

Outstanding as an aperitif. Perfect accompaniment to light first courses and with almost all fish.
