Named for the imposing Dolomite peaks that overlook the vineyard, Vette is a fresh Sauvignon Blanc sourced from 12 hectares owned and managed by private growers and vinified in stainless steel. Floral rather than pungent in character, it’s beautifully lemony and peachy with a juicy, succulent palate that’s both vertical and saline. Peach, hay, summer meadow flowers and touches of mango and grapefruit end with some leesy creaminess and a squeeze of lime.
