Vermentino

Vermentino, also known as Rolle or Favorita, is an ancient grape variety primarily found in the coastal areas of the western Mediterranean region. It is cultivated in Italy, specifically in the regions of Liguria, Sardinia, Tuscany, and Sicily, as well as in France, particularly in Corsica and Provence. Vermentino grapes have a thicker skin, which helps them ripen in the warm coastal regions while preserving their acidity. The Vermentino grape variety has been gaining popularity and international recognition in recent years. Winemakers appreciate its adaptability to different soils and climatic conditions, resulting in various styles of wine, ranging from fruity and lively to more complex and structured variations.
