2024 Il Monticello "Groppolo" Vermentino

Located in the hills of Monticello, near the Tuscan coast, this family-run estate is dedicated to producing wines that reflect the terroir of the region. Monticello specializes in cultivating the Vermentino grape, a variety that thrives in the Mediterranean climate. The "Groppolo" Vermentino comes from carefully managed, organic vineyards, and showcases the purity and vibrancy that Vermentino is known for. This wine is fermented and aged in stainless steel to preserve its fresh, zesty character. On the nose, the "Groppolo" Vermentino offers inviting aromas of lemon zest, white peach, and green apple, with subtle floral notes of jasmine and a hint of saline minerality. On the palate, the wine is crisp and refreshing, with lively acidity that complements the bright citrus and stone fruit flavors. The finish is long and clean, with a touch of sea spray, reflecting the vineyard’s proximity to the coast.
