This is a classic offering from Sardinia. It's the kind of wine you'll want to drink on a yacht floating off shore. The 2017 Vermentino di Sardegna Stellato shows some of the dryness of the hot vintage with chalky notes of sea salt and crushed oyster shell followed by white grapefruit, pear and peach. You might get more floral tones in a cool vintage, but a hot vintage like this brings out the sea salt. The wine ages on the lees in stainless steel for four months. Some 30,000 bottles were made.
