Producer: Le Sode di Sant’Angelo
Grape Variety: Vermentino
Vintage: 2021
Region: Tuscany, Italy
The 2021 “Suggestione” Bianco from Le Sode di Sant’Angelo is a refined expression of coastal Tuscan Vermentino, capturing both the freshness of the Tyrrhenian influence and the minerality of the region’s hillside soils.
Appearance:
Pale straw yellow with brilliant greenish reflections, indicating youth and vibrancy.
Nose:
Intensely aromatic, the bouquet opens with Mediterranean herbs—sage and thyme—intertwined with white peach, citrus zest, and floral notes of acacia and jasmine. A subtle hint of sea breeze and crushed stones evokes its maritime terroir.
Palate:
Lively and well-balanced on the palate, this Vermentino displays a refreshing acidity that frames a core of citrus fruit (lemon, grapefruit), ripe pear, and green apple. Mid-palate salinity and a light almond note on the finish provide complexity and a distinctly Tuscan character. The texture is elegant yet crisp, with a persistent and clean finish.
Food Pairing:
Ideal with seafood crudo, grilled shellfish, or light pasta dishes with aromatic herbs. Also pairs beautifully with soft goat cheese and vegetable-based antipasti.
Conclusion:
Le Sode di Sant’Angelo’s 2021 “Suggestione” Bianco is a compelling interpretation of Vermentino—expressive, nuanced, and reflective of its coastal heritage. A wine that combines elegance with a genuine sense of place.
