I haven’t seen a bottling of Vermentino from the northern reaches of California until this one by Sassoferrato from the Russian River Valley, and it makes a good argument for why it should be planted there. Tart lemon and herbs dance together well from start to finish in mouthwatering fashion – my summer sip list is getting longer.
