The 2022 Vermentino hails from Sardinia, Italy. This family - owned winery was established in 2004 by Orlando Tondini, ranking it among the youngest wine - growing firms in Gallura. Nowadays, Orlando's four sons assist him daily, with Antonio serving as the winery's wine expert. The winery features 30 hectares of vineyards, half planted with Vermentino. These vineyards are just 350 meters above sea level, enjoying the gentle Mediterranean breezes and climate. Crafted from 100% Vermentino, this delicious white wine is Tondini's star product, named in honor of the town. It offers a taste of ripe mandarin oranges, pears, Mediterranean herbs, and a hint of almond. This makes it a perfect match for seafood and white meats.
To enjoy this Tenute Tondini Vermentino, first, chill it in the fridge for about 1 - 2 hours until it's at a cool temperature, around 8 - 10°C. When serving, use a white wine glass to let the wine breathe and enhance its aroma. This wine pairs excellently with seafood like grilled shrimp or white meats such as chicken breast. Keep the wine in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight when storing. Avoid storing it in a place with high temperature fluctuations, as this can affect the taste. If you have any leftovers, cork the bottle tightly and put it back in the fridge. It should stay fresh for a couple of days.
