A blend of 85% Nasco and 15% Vermentino. A very substantial wine, quite different from the usual, light and mineral Vermentino. Clearly harvested at full maturity, with ripe fruit flavours, considerable but not excessive weight (almost defying its whopping 14.5% ABV), and a beautifully judged dose of new oak. Juicy acidity, lovely balance, mineral freshness, clean flavours, good length. A very successful wine.
