The easy 2017 Riviera Ligure di Ponente Vermentino Vigna Sorí is a fresh and zesty white wine to pair with curry chicken salad. You get green notes of kiwi and crisp apple followed by warmer tones of honey and dried grass. This is a lean but satisfying white. Some 15,000 bottles were made.

The 2013 Riviera Ligure di Ponente Vermentino Vigna Sorì is a rich and thick expression of this workhorse variety. The wine shows a pretty golden color and a luminous appearance. Vermentino tends to offer citrusy aromas of lime and grapefruit and you get both those here. You also get white flower, peach and pear. Slight dustings of crushed stone and granite appear on the finish.
