Wine Details

La Spinetta Il Vermentino di Casanova Toscana IGT

This fresh, lively white sees only stainless steel with aromas of bright citrus, flowers, herbs and a touch of meringue on the nose. Nuanced and wonderfully focused, the Vermentino has an energy and acidity that drives the wine’s enticing personality. This is a medium-to full-bodied wine with good density, ideal enjoyed quite young.

La Spinetta Il Vermentino di Casanova Toscana IGT 2023

Vinous Media (90)- "The 2023 Vermentino is a wild, exotic wine. Tangerine peel, mint, jasmine, passionfruit and white flowers are all amplified in this intensely aromatic, tropical white. There's just enough to keep things in balance."
