Discover the best wines made with Vermentino as a single variety or as a blend of Alta Langa.
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.
Piedmontese DOCG on the high Langhe hills (Alessandria, Asti, Cuneo) above 250 m. Metodo classico sparkling (90-100% Pinot Noir and/or Chardonnay, min. 30 months on lees, 36 for Riserva): fine creamy bubbles with notes of citrus, yellow apple, brioche, hazelnut, white flowers and chalky touch, taut and precise palate — the great classic sparkler of Piedmont. Also delicate rosés.
