Vermentino is so hot right now, a variety that is proving to be very well suited to the warm South Australian climate in particular. The attraction of a such is like this is that it marries a dry and refreshing palate with some welcome tangy chalk...

This groovy little vermentino is a dry, unoaked style that shows scents of lemons, apples and honeysuckle on the nose. The palate is light and frisky with juicy citrus fruit flavours, and a refreshing finish. It would be great with some fresh sard...

Vermentino is another one of those 'so hot right now' Italian varieties to hit our shores, and they are certainly easy drinking and enjoyable in a Friday casual way. This is a pretty straighforward dry style that smells and tastes of apples, citru...

This cheeky little vermentino is a great alternative to the usual savvys and pinot gris on a Summers days. This wine is straight out top value, and shows lots of aromatic citrus, melons and soft spcies on the nose with just a twist of herbaceousne...

Vermentino, to put it mildly, is so hot right now, the variety pushed forward in recent years to be the must-have white variety for many vineyards in warm regions. The appeal of course is just how crisp, grippy and weighty Vermentino can be, with ...

As the name suggests this is a small batch, special Vermentino. A premium Vermentino, a grown-up Vermentino from a winery that seems to have a knack with 'alternate' whites like Fiano and Vermentino, this wine showing all of the textural weight an...

We always talk about the next big thing in wine based on what consumers are buying and according to us Vermentino is going to be it. Thankfully easier to say than Viognier and easier on the palate too, this light and crisp style is a breath of fre...

100% Rolle (also known as Vermentino). Lots of character and power, this is punchy and has punchy apple fruit - ripe and full. On the palate juicy and powerful, laden with pithy lemon and grapefruit. Big and flavourful.

Light straw colour. Shy, elusive and freshly fermented, youthfully raw aromas, with pleasant floral, apple and spice subtleties. Intense and tingling palate with lively acid and crisp, dry, lip-smacking aftertaste. Lots of energy here. Good food w...

Light yellow colour. Peppermint aroma; slightly dusty and nettley, with a hint of development. The palate is light and dry, grippy in phenolics, with a thickness of texture. Plenty of flavour and grip, but a very simple wine.

Very light to pale colour. Malty oxidation hints on the nose. Restrained, dry, soft and slightly firm but not grippy phenolics. White pepper and cucumber. Delicate, properly dry and balanced. Good wine, if a bit simple.

Palish hue. Fragrant, honeyed, minerally and slaty aromas; somewhat Germanic. The palate is dry and delicate with taut tenseness, line and length. Juicy middle then dries off towards the finish, and it has a clean aftertaste that lingers well. Tig...

Pale colour. Reductive pong at first, plus some vaguely spicy notes. The palate is very light, a trifle watery, lacking much depth or concentration. Just a simple, light quaffing white wine, but a nice drink.

Palish colour. Youthful, somewhat hollow aroma and flavour: it lacks intensity of fruit, and seems a touch neutral and watery. A light, simple quaffer of good balance and a clean, appetising finish.

Very light yellow colour. herbal, grassy and faintly peach nectar aromas. Slight sweetness on entry, grapy and fruity, and the palate is finished by some sherbety acidity. Rather simple, but attractive. A pleasant, basic quaffing white.
