The Lamoresca Bianco is made from Vermentino grapes farmed by Filippo and Nancy Rizzo. Their pristine fruit and lo-fi winemaking techniques produce and wonderfully textural example of the variety.Vermentino can be neutral at times, sometimes bland or insipid. Not the case here. Wild fermented with a few days on skins and released after a good rest in bottle - it takes Vermentino into delicious new territory. It's glassy, saline and cut with a nervy acidity. More time in bottle will reveal more levels of detail and flavour, if you can keep your hands off it, that is. Lamoresca Bianco is a vermentino wine, rich and round, with a good acidity. A white wine that will become more impressive after one or two years in bottle. 100% Vermentino (Corso). Spontaneous fermentation with 2 days skin maceration and no temperature control. Aged in cement and old wooden barrel. Natural malolactic fermentation. No added sulfur and no filtering or fining.
