Wines made from Vermentino grapes of Colli di Luni
Discover the best wines made with Vermentino as a single variety or as a blend of Colli di Luni.
Nervy, saline whites with cutting acidity and enveloping richness, showing aromas of grapefruit, lime, pear, white flowers, fresh almond, fennel and marine iodine notes. Slightly bitter finish. Star of Sardinia (Vermentino di Gallura DOCG), Liguria, coastal Tuscany (Bolgheri) and Corsica. Also in Provence and Languedoc-Roussillon as Rolle. An autochthonous Mediterranean variety.
DOC straddling Liguria and Tuscany, coastal hills around Massa and La Spezia, Carrara marbles as backdrop. Vermentino is the signature white king (min. 90%): taut and aromatic with pear, green apple, basil, sage, almond and saline iodine touch — less herbaceous than its northern Ligurian cousins, lighter than in Sardinia, marked minerality from the rock. Supple Sangiovese and Canaiolo reds in complement.
