2024 Lunae - Colli di Luni DOC Vermentino Grey Label (750ml)
The 2024 Lunae Colli di Luni DOC Vermentino captures the maritime climate of northwest Italy through a crisp, aromatic white wine designed for immediate enjoyment and versatile dining.
Cultivated across sun-drenched coastal terraces where Liguria and Piedmont converge, this vintage reflects the region’s characteristic geology of alluvial gravel, sand, and limestone. The glass presents a pale straw color releasing concentrated aromas of squeezed lemon, green apple, fennel fronds, and sea spray. On the palate, bright citric acidity anchors flavors of white peach and crushed rock, leading to a dry, saline finish that lingers cleanly on the tongue.
Serve chilled between 45 and 48 degrees F to highlight its vibrant structure. The wine’s refreshing acidity and subtle brininess cut through rich proteins while complementing delicate flavors, making it an ideal match for raw oysters, grilled prawns, roasted branzino with herbs, and sheep’s milk ricotta crostini. Store the bottle upright in a cool room before serving, and refrigerate tightly sealed after opening while planning to drink it within two days.
