Our Desaria uses the Vermentino grape but unlike the minimal intervention of the other way we make Vermentino this wine is the opposite in every way. Some of the Vermentino fruit is placed through the Appassimento drying process, some are aged in oak and some are fermented in big oak bottis. This style of big whites was much more common during a period in history that predates the Roman Empire and was frequently championed by the Etruscans.
