Elba Vermentino

DOC

White

Vermentino is the one most commonly referred to as the ‘wine of the sea’, cultivated along the Tyrrhenian coasts from Liguria to northern Sicily. This semi-aromatic white grape variety thrives in mineral-rich soils near the sea, which impart salinity and sapidity to the wine. Known for their intense and aromatic bouquet, Vermentino-based wines are among the most appreciated in Italy, making them perfect for pairing with fish dishes.
