Description

Here Damon Koerner puts an interesting spin on an already interesting variety. This is a Vermentino with some attitude.

He uses a canny combination of skin contact and ageing in old oak to bring extra layers of complexity to a variety often thought of as mono-dimensional.

This is smashability writ large and arguably the finest example of Vermentino in the country.

Review

The 2023 Rolle is salty and plump and a little chewy, with salted cashews, graphite, cold peach tea, apple skins and brine. It is texturally engaging, which makes it fun to drink, but it's also complex and lingering through the finish, which engages more than just the palate. It's a cool wine, and I'm glad to have it here again today. It comes recommended. 10.5% alcohol, sealed under Diam.
