VERMENTINO DELLE RIPALTE
Our elegant and fresh white wine captures the essence of the Mediterranean climate of the Island of Elba. The rocky, volcanic soils and warm, dry climate make Elba an island ideally suited for the cultivation of the Vermentino grape.
The stony nature, volcanic origin of the soil, and hot, arid climate make Elba an island well-suited to the cultivation of the Vermentino grape variety.

Description
The Gorgaccio vineyards, where our grapes are sourced, lie between two ancient iron mines. This unique location imparts a distinct minerality to the Vermentino, while the proximity to the sea adds a special vitality to the vines.
VINIFICATION
After manual harvesting, the grapes are gently pressed. Following clarification, fermentation occurs at a controlled temperature between 18°C and 20°C.
AGEING
The wine remains in contact with the fine lees for several months before being bottled in the spring and further aged in bottle.
TASTING NOTES
Colour: Bright straw yellow with golden reflections.
Aroma: Citrus and floral notes with hints of Mediterranean herbs and mineral nuances.
Taste: Fresh and balanced, with a pleasant flavour and a lingering aftertaste reminiscent of the Mediterranean scrub.
PAIRINGS
An ideal companion to seafood dishes, molluscs, octopus, and shellfish. It also pairs beautifully with fresh cheeses and lightly aged cold cuts. A great choice to accompany white meats such as chicken, turkey, and rabbit, as well as risottos, omelettes, and mushroom-based dishes.
