Elicio Blanc (Vermentino) IGP Méditerranée 2024 (750 ml)

Blend: 100% Rolle (Vermentino)
Aging: 6 to 8 months in stainless steel tanks, on its lees.

Made by Xavier Logette, this is one of the purest expressions of Vermentino you'll find. The strikingly clear pale-yellow color builds anticipation for the fulsome saline, herbal, citrus, and tropical fruit nose. Those same flavors explode on the fullbodied palate as fine details such as olive oil, garrigue, and juicy fruit flavors emerge to fill out this refreshing wine with a pleasant acidity and a persistent salty tang.

One of our best all-occasion wines, it performs especially well with raw shellfish, Mediterranean-style seafood dishes, pungent Southeast Asian dishes, and shell beans.

About Elicio
Elicio’s producer, Caravinsérail, is a wine story. The name echoes the caravansary of the desert, a propitious place for travelers to rest, meet, and relax in a congenial atmosphere. In partnership with skilled winemakers, owner Xavier Logette and Didier Robert (manager of the Œnologist Office “ICV” in Beaumes-de-Venise) produce wines of quality and pleasure from grapes of the Southern Rhône and Languedoc. They range from light and easy wines at a very affordable price to more elaborate and complex cuvées for special occasions.
