Winemaker Notes
With a straw-yellow color, it features a full, intense and persistent nose, with aromas of peach, honey and broom flowers. Full-bodied on the palate, it is rich in flavor, intensely acidic and remarkably mineral, dry but soft almost salty, with great length and hints of almonds.
There are hundreds of white grape varieties grown throughout the world. Some are indigenous specialties capable of producing excellent single varietal wines. Each has its own distinct viticultural characteristics, as well as aroma and flavor profiles.
Liguria’s most extensive DOC along its northwest coast from Genoa to France, the area concentrates on the production of Vermentino (called Pigato here), Dolcetto (called Ormeasco here), Alicante and Rossese di Dolceaqua.
