Lorenzo Melani Vermentino di Toscana IGT 2021
Tasting Notes: Brilliant straw yellow, very intense bouquet of citrus fruits, white flowers and Mediterranean fruit such as peach and apricot. In the mouth it is full-bodied, fresh, and crunchy marked by a sapid and pleasant finish.
Food Pairings: Enjoy as an aperitif, with vegetarian and seafood cuisine, and delicate seafood first courses.
James Suckling: “Zingy lime juice with fresh green apples, oyster shells and chalk on the nose followed by a very tangy, bright palate cut through by razor-sharp acidity and a mouthwatering acidity. Limey and chalky, but not overly austere. Drink now”
International Wine Report: “The 2021 Lorenzo Melani Vermentino di Toscana offers pretty aromas of citrus, melon, peaches, white florals and herbs all taking shape. On the palate it shows wonderful vibrancy and balance from start to finish. This is excellent now, it should also continue to drink beautifully with another year of bottle age.”
