The Selvadolce VB1 2021 is a natural white wine produced by the biodynamic winery Selvadolce in Liguria, Italy. This wine, like all of Selvadolce’s creations, is made with minimal intervention, emphasizing the purity of the grape and the unique terroir of Liguria’s coastal region. The VB1 is a special wine, reflecting the winery's commitment to crafting high-quality, expressive natural wines.
The VB1 is made from Vermentino grapes, one of the hallmark white grape varieties of Liguria. Vermentino thrives in coastal regions, producing wines with vibrant acidity, freshness, and a characteristic saline quality. Vermentino wines are often aromatic and known for their balance of fruit and mineral notes.
The VB1 has a light golden-yellow color, which may vary slightly depending on the vintage. As a natural wine, it has a slight haziness, reflecting the lack of filtration, which adds to the wine’s authenticity and character. The VB1 2021 displays a highly aromatic bouquet typical of Vermentino, with fresh citrus notes such as lemon and grapefruit, combined with hints of green apple and white peach. These fruit aromas are often complemented by more complex layers of wild herbs (such as thyme and sage) and subtle floral notes like white flowers. On the palate, the VB1 2021 is fresh, lively, and well-balanced. The wine delivers bright flavors of citrus, green apple, and pear, underpinned by a strong mineral backbone and a distinct saline quality. The wine’s refreshing acidity provides excellent structure, while the lees aging may contribute to a slightly creamy or round texture, adding depth and complexity. The finish is long and clean, with lingering notes of citrus and minerality.
The VB1 2021 pairs wonderfully with a wide range of dishes, particularly seafood and Mediterranean cuisine. Its crisp acidity and saline notes make it an excellent match for grilled fish, shellfish, and seafood pasta. It also complements vegetarian dishes, fresh salads, and goat cheese. The wine’s mineral qualities make it a perfect choice for pairing with light, citrus-based sauces or dishes featuring olive oil and herbs.
The vineyards of Selvadolce are located near the Ligurian Sea, which greatly influences the wine’s flavor profile. The proximity to the coast gives the wine its distinctive saline and mineral characteristics, while the Mediterranean climate provides ideal conditions for the cultivation of Vermentino. The winery follows biodynamic principles, meaning that all farming practices are sustainable, and the use of synthetic chemicals is avoided. This allows the grapes to fully express the terroir. In keeping with Selvadolce’s natural winemaking philosophy, the VB1 2021 is produced with minimal intervention. The wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation using only indigenous yeasts, and no artificial additives or sulfur are used. The wine is likely aged on its lees (dead yeast cells) to build texture and complexity. There is no filtration or fining, so the wine retains its full character and might have a slight haze, typical of natural wines.

The Selvadolce VB1 2021 is a fresh, mineral-driven white wine that beautifully showcases the elegance and character of the Vermentino grape from Liguria. With its vibrant citrus and fruit flavors, refreshing acidity, and distinctive saline and mineral notes, it’s an excellent choice for lovers of natural wines and those who appreciate wines that reflect their terroir. It’s perfect for pairing with seafood and light Mediterranean dishes or for enjoying on its own as a refreshing, complex white wine.
