Sparkling Vermentino! This is a fabulous aperitif. Alive and vibrant, it possesses a joyous mousse and energetic fizz. Coupled with its subtle complexity, it's a wonderful sparkling for something a little different.
The base wine was wild yeast fermented in French oak before sitting on lees for two years.
Lemon zest, lemon cheesecake, green apples and seaspray deliver a fresh and inviting introduction. Beads of fizz race to the top of the glass in excitable fashion. Canned pear juice and white fleshed stonefruit fill out the mid-palate leaving a citrusy tang and cleansing acidity in its wake. I could easily have a glass or two, it's a great drink.
Drink to five years.
