This Vernaccia is powerful, dry and full-bodied with a balanced acidity and a long, almond-tinged aftertaste, and it is made for light dishes where a good olive oil takes the leading role. The acidity cuts beautifully through the richness, so it lifts vegetables in oil, lean fish and shellfish without taking over. The salty, herbal and slightly bitter notes also find an echo in pecorino and goat cheese, while the wine's weight can accompany a simple chicken or lean fish from the oven. Think of food with citrus, fresh herbs and good oil, and the wine will play along.

About the wine
A beautiful corn-yellow wine in the glass.
Aroma of fresh herbs and almonds.
The taste is powerful and dry, with a wonderfully rich and long aftertaste.
The wine has balanced acidity.
The production of this wine harkens back to old traditions when the Vernaccia grape was vinified in a manner similar to red wine production. Maceration of the grapes with the skin to impart color, tannin, and aroma. Then refinement in glass-lined cement vats. Finally, the wine is bottled, where it gains age and finesse.
