Lunae, Etichetta Nera Vermentino Colli di Luni 2021

92 points Wine Spectator
"This white is intense, from the chamomile flower, lemon balm and sage aromas to the passion fruit and mineral flavors. Finishes long, with the richness and fruit offsetting the vibrant acidity."

91 points Decanter
"A selection of the estate's best Vermentino from hillside vines, this intense white appeals immediately with its aromas of lime peel, apple and touches of hay and honey. Broad and juicy, floral and apple flavours are joined by peach and grapefruit and carry through to a long finish."

Vinous Reverie Notes
Liguria is a place you almost smell before you see, and its aromatic complexity is reflected in this award-winning wine. The salinity of the ocean, the clean citrus notes of lemon trees, the rosemary and thyme bushes amidst the craggy rocks… even the bright green pesto being ground by hand with mortar and pestle in homes and restaurants. It all wafts through the air as you approach this rocky, sea-sprayed corner of the Alps and Apennines. This Black Label, the winery’s flagship effort, hails from old vines on hillside sites featuring sandy clay soils that boost this wine’s mouthwatering acidity and intense fragrance. Only the best bunches make it into this bottle. Tasting notes: Elegant and complex with reams of stone fruit blossoms, lemon peel, and spice, with a complex chalky mineral layer. Food Pairing: Especially suited for all types of seafood dishes but also on its own as an apertif it will transport straight to the Riviera!
