Bailiwick Vermentino 2013

Our 2013 Vermentino highlights this varietal’s unique qualities which makes it a perfect complement to seafood and lighter Mediterranean-type meals. 47.5% of the blend originates from the Sunnybrook Vineyard in San Luis Opisbo county, providing a foundation of ripe apple and pineapple flavors. Lovett Vineyard, in the Red Hills of Lake County AVA, contributes the other 52.5%, with bright acidity and light citrus notes. The resulting blend rewards with a delightful citrusy, herbal nose, a full mouthfeel, followed by refreshing acidity at the finish. This wine is best served well-chilled, and when paired with simply prepared grilled fish, it evokes great dinners in port side restaurants along the beautiful coast of Italy. It takes us there every time.
