St. Avalo
Los Olivos District Santa Barbara County Vermentino
Santa Barbara County, Central Coast, California, USA
This wine is the color of yellow straw with a hint of green in it. The nose has the aroma of white flowers, nectarine, mango, and a salty mineral aspect. I don’t smell the ocean as I do with Sicilian Vermentino, but it’s nearly a match. The palate shows stone fruit, a touch of tangerine, and a streak of salinity. The acidity is mid-range and the finish is long. There is a nutty flavor that lingers after the sip. This is a beautiful wine.
