2021 Grattamacco Bianco

The organic Grattamacco 2021 Bolgheri Vermentino shows the results of an extra year in bottle with steely mineral notes followed by ripe apple and preserved lemon. There is just a hint of evolution in this white from 2021 that gives it pretty layers of flint and ash. The wine is drinking beautifully right now, especially in terms of mouthfeel thanks to its clean, mid-weight texture and freshness. It is partially aged in tonneaux, and there is a delicate hint of vanilla spice. This characterful wine comes from old and precious vines. Some 15,000 bottles were made. This is one of the top Vermentinos on the market today.
