Selvadolce VB1 2021
A vivid natural Ligurian Vermentino where bright citrus, orchard fruit and wild herbs meet a long, sea-swept mineral finish.
🍇 About the wine
VB1 2021 is an expressive Vermentino from Selvadolce’s biodynamically cultivated vineyards near the Ligurian Sea. The coastal setting and Mediterranean climate shape a wine of vibrant acidity, aromatic clarity and a distinctive saline-mineral character.
Made with minimal intervention, VB1 ferments spontaneously with indigenous yeasts and without artificial additives or added sulphur. It is neither fined nor filtered, preserving its natural texture and full expression; a slight haze is therefore entirely normal.
🍷 Tasting notes
Appearance: Light golden yellow, naturally showing a possible slight haze.
Nose: Lemon, grapefruit, green apple and white peach with white flowers, thyme and sage.
Palate: Fresh and lively, combining citrus, green apple and pear with vibrant acidity and a firm mineral core.
Finish: Long and clean, with lingering citrus, salinity and mineral freshness.
🍽️ Food pairing
Pairs beautifully with grilled fish, shellfish, seafood pasta, fresh salads, goat cheese, Mediterranean vegetables and dishes with olive oil, herbs or citrus-based sauces.
