2022 Ca du Ferra - Colline di Levanto DOC Luccicante (750ml)
The 2022 Ca du Ferra Colline di Levanto DOC Luccicante is a 100% Vermentino white wine cultivated on terraced slopes at 400 meters elevation above the Ligurian Sea. The vineyards span Bonassola, Riomaggiore, Vernazza, and Levanto inside the Cinque Terre National Park, where coastal wind exposure and full Mediterranean sun shape each grape’s aromatic concentration.
Stainless steel fermentation locks in the variety’s native freshness, allowing the wine to pour a bright silver-straw color with pronounced clarity. The nose opens with crisp grapefruit, elderflower, crushed wet grass, and distinct sea salt, followed by a subtle candied floral lift. On the palate, flavors remain precise and focused, supported by vibrant acidity that carries through clean citrus and fresh fruit, leading to a juicy, lingering finish.
Named for its visually glittering character, this wine balances refined mineral structure with immediate drinkability. Serve it well chilled alongside grilled branzino, fried anchovies, or a simple seafood pasta dressed in olive oil and lemon peel.
