Dry yet with a candy-like, lemon-lime essence that could seem sweet at first. Good weight for its moderate, 12.5-per-cent alcohol, with notes of white pepper and herbs to keep it lively. Captivatingly offbeat – and that’s why you’d want to take a chance on a Sardinian vermentino in the first place, isn’t it? Available in Ontario.
