WINE

Vermentino “Limite,” Maremma, Tenuta Pietramora di Colle Fagiano, ’23

Tuscany, Italy

Along Tuscany’s wild southern coastline, the region of Maremma has become one of Italy’s most exciting sources for fresh, expressive Vermentino. Once a marshland known more for cattle than vineyards, Maremma has undergone a remarkable transformation, with growers discovering that its proximity to the sea, abundant sunshine, and cooling coastal winds are perfectly suited to Mediterranean varieties.

Tenuta Pietramora di Colle Fagiano is a small estate dedicated to farming in harmony with its environment, allowing the character of this rugged landscape to shine through in the glass. The name “Limite” refers to boundaries and borders, a fitting tribute to a wine that sits at the crossroads of land and sea.

Vermentino thrives in these conditions, developing both ripe fruit and a distinctive salty freshness. In the glass, “Limite” offers notes of citrus blossom, lemon peel, and white peach, alongside hints of Mediterranean herbs and a subtle mineral edge. There is plenty of brightness, but also enough texture to make the wine feel substantial and satisfying.

This is the kind of white that captures the spirit of a coastal summer, sunny, breezy, and endlessly inviting. A beautiful expression of Maremma, it shows why Vermentino has become one of Tuscany’s most beloved warm-weather wines.

CHEESE

Alta Langa Castelbelbo

Piedmont, Italy · Cow, Goat & Sheep–P

We’re pleased to introduce you to your new favorite “butter-like” cheese: Alta Langa Castelbelbo. This brie style beauty delights the palate with fresh grassiness and a soft, creamy interior. Made from a blend of cow’s, goat’s, and sheep’s milk, it strikes a beautiful balance of milky texture, gentle tang, and a savory olive oil finish.

If you’ve heard of Robiola Bosina or La Tur, this cheese is from the same producer and is the perfect combination of rich oozy paste and lactic tang wrapped in a thin, bloomy rind. It is made in Piedmont, an area well known for brie style cheeses thanks to the influence of its French neighbors. Alta Langa ages its cheese for just two weeks, enough time to develop a complex yet delicate rind and allow the milks to take center stage.
