Vermentino, by Sabreseno
Vermentino is firmly established as the number one white grape variety in Sardinia. The climate is perfect to produce high quality versions - long, warm days to fully develop its flavour complexities. Altitude and a coastal breeze help extend the ripening period even further. And for the quality, its amazing value for money.
This wine is from a tiny but premium growing area, within the Vermentino di Gallura DOCG. It's a really interesting version - fresh and citrussy as is typical - but with loads of other flavours that have had time to develop - flowers, sweetness of honey, and a touch of saltiness. It’s pretty full bodied for a wine that’s so refreshing, so super versatile. Personally, we'd drink it most days of the year, although watch out for the 15%, you won’t notice it!
Why we chose it?
A relatively unknown grape on these shores. This version is small batch, unusual and delicious.

Vermentino
Fuller bodied than your average Vermentino, but still refreshing. Incredibly versatile, but would pair amazingly with barbecued white fish on a summers day. Not suitable for ageing. Serve cold, 10-13 degrees.
