Il Torchio Il Bianco Vermentino 2022

Petra Novak — Really nice white

8/10

Picked this up from my local wine shop on their recommendation and glad I did. Lovely citrusy flavours with something almost nutty going on — almond maybe? Really refreshing but with a bit more substance than your average white. Had it with grilled fish and it was spot on.

Marcus Blackwell — Good but a bit steep

6/10

Bought this for a dinner party and everyone enjoyed it, but honestly I think you can find similar quality Vermentino for a tenner less. The saline thing is interesting and it's got nice structure, just felt like I was paying a premium for the label.

Benjamin Ross — Solid Vermentino

7/10

I've been getting into Vermentino lately and this is a good one. Nice herby nose, proper acidity that keeps you coming back for another sip. At £22.75 it's not an everyday wine but it's well made.
