Wines made from Vermentino grapes of Colline Savonesi
Discover the best wines made with Vermentino as a single variety or as a blend of Colline Savonesi.
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 on the hills of Savona (Riviera di Ponente) between the Apennines and the sea, vineyards at 400–700 m on sandstone, limestone and clays. Lumassina (Buzzetto) as the signature white — dry and light with lively citrus, green apple, Mediterranean herbs and a saline-iodine mineral touch, low alcohol and cutting acidity, the perfect marine thirst-quencher with seafood. Granaccia (local Grenache) as the signature red: fruity and supple with strawberry and garrigue.
