Golden Grove Estate 2012 Vermentino

A Sardinian variety that perfectly reflects the heritage of Golden Grove Estate.

Winemaker’s Comments (Ray Costanzo): The nose is awash with fresh pear, citrus and a floral background. The palate is a delicate blend of citrus and fresh fruit wrapped neatly around a mineral acid backbone and further enriched through the use of wild barrel fermentation.

Reviewer’s comments (Andrew Corrigan MW): Aromas of fresh lemon pudding are followed by a taste that is light, dry and fresh but with pleasing weight. Will match well to complex flavoured light foods such as marinara and barbecued dishes.
