title: Rosa d'Oro 2013 Vermentino (Lake County)
description: This fascinating wine has a deep gold color, aromas like toasted nuts, flavors like apricots and a rich but tangy texture. Winemaker Pietro Buttita fermented it with the skins like a red wine and aged it without oak. It would be fun to try with a chunk of Pecorino or some liver pate on toast.
variety: Vermentino
