"Bright green-tinged straw-yellow. Fresh aromas of mint and honeysuckle complement yellow apple and winter melon on the enticing nose. Fairly dry and quite brisk, with sneaky, pure fruit flavors and complicating hints of mint and chlorophyll on the long, bright finish. A hint of diesel fuel emerges at the back. Really great stuff: this is one of the best Sardinian vermentinos of the vintage."

Product Description:

"Giunco’ is straw yellow in color with pale green highlights. There are hints of ripe tropical fruit on the nose, especially pineapple and mango. It is full-bodied on the palate with a long and dry finish. Pairs well with fish soups, grilled fish, and fresh pecorino cheeses." -Importer
