I'm a sucker for a good Vermentino. The 2023 In Cantos Vermentino di Sardegna is on that list. Made by Cantine di Dolianova in southern Sardegna, the 100% Vermentino wine was vinified in stainless steel and aged in the tank, on its lees. Alcohol sits a bit low, at 13% abv, and it cost about $20 at Eataly in Los Angeles.
This wine has a yellow-green tint in the glass. The nose is full of minerality, with lemons and a sea breeze leading the way. The palate shows citrus, too, and it carries along that wonderful salinity. The acidity is zesty and bright. Pair it with crab, shrimp, or any sort of seafood, really.
