Vigne Rada '3 Nodi' Passito Bianco Isola dei Nuraghi IGT, Sardinia, Italy 2016 500ml
Vermentino thrives around the coastal town of Alghero in northwest Sardinia, giving beautifully perfumed wines hinting at wildflowers, Mediterranean herbs, and briny sea breezes. While the Bardino family of Vigne Rada focuses primarily on a mouth-coating, mineral-driven dry Vermentino, they also dabble in the art of passito from late-harvest grapes shriveled up on the vine due to botrytis. With a delightfully cleansing acidity, this masterpiece retains all the brightness needed to refresh, while a luscious mouthfeel and hints of honey make this an indulgent treat. Terroir has the last word, as a noteworthy salinity reminds us of the nearby Mediterranean.
