Barboursville Vineyards
Reserve Vermentino
Virginia, USA
2011 Barboursville Vineyards Vermentino. The 2011 vintage was a rough one in Virginia, but amidst & from it, Luca Pascina added just the right amount of neutral oak to bookend what may very well become a new staple for Virginia collectors and international connoisseurs as well. You watch. When the more zesty, ripe, stainless-produced 2012's come along make sure to give it a swing. Specially with linguine in clam sauce. Oy.
