The grape variety appears to have been initially discovered in Spain and later spread by the ancient Romans to Italy and certain French regions, like Languedoc-Roussillon, where it is known as “Malvoisie Précoce d’Espagne” or “Malvoisie à Gros Grains”, and Corsica, where it is the most cultivated white grape.
Vermentino is known by different names in various regions, such as Pigato in Liguria and Favorita in Piedmont.
The finest Italian Vermentino wines are produced in the Sardinia region.
Sardinian Vermentino wines are often characterized by their crisp acidity, citrus notes, and aromatic profile, making them ideal for pairing with seafood dishes or enjoying on their own.
The island’s climate and the ancient geological evolution of the rocks, influenced by the sea, contribute to making this wine one of Italy’s top white grape productions.
