Screaming Betty
Vermentino 2025
Region: Riverland, South Australia
Country: Australia
Format: 750ml
ABV: 11%
Wild fermented in stainless steel, the wine also spent 6 weeks on fine lees, stirred twice weekly, giving it a beautiful, textural edge not often found in Australian Vermentino’s - our reference point is Sardinia and Liguria.
Vermentino on a more floral, geranium/ jasmine bouquet bent this year, green apple fuzzy juicy, lovely length and persistence from the salty oily Vermentino-ey-ness. Kerosine, grapefruit, lemon curd, with a crunchy salinity to finish. A real high wire, acid driven ride of a drink, bring on some screamy cacio e pepe and another bottle, please!
