Discover the best wines made with Vermentino as a single variety or as a blend of Colline del Genovesato.
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.
Ligurian IGT covering the coastline around Genoa (Arenzano to Sestri Levante), schist terroirs facing the sea. Vermentino is the signature white — taut and saline with bright citrus, white flowers, white peach and iodine-mineral Mediterranean notes, racy acidity. Indigenous Bianchetta Genovese and Cimixià in aromatic whites. Ciliegiolo and Rossese as supple reds with red fruits and herbal touch.
