Vermentino is a relative newcomer on the Australian landscape but it’s set to become a favourite due to its natural texture, versatility and the talents husband and wife winemaking team Ian and Suzanne Little.
In the glass: Medium density gold.
On the nose: Heady and exotic mix of pear, stonefruit and musk with a faint nutty complexity.
On the palate: Ripe and full-bodied with lots of fruit weight in the mouth, layers of apricot and melon and a honeyed richness. Quite left field and generous for a Vermentino, but well balanced by spicy, almost ginger-like acidity.
