2018 Diamond Vermentino
91 pts., Editors’ Choice – Wine Enthusiast
Winemaker's Notes
This Vermentino is a bright, fruit forward wine with refreshing acidity. This vineyard enjoys cooler temperatures because of its proximity to the Mokelumne River, and that, coupled with early picking, gives the wine vibrant acidity while being lower in sugar and full citrus aromatics. Most notably, this wine requires no manipulation thanks to the high quality of our fruit.
