In the old days, a yellowish hue in an Italian white signified a wine that was well past its sell-by date, and you could expect oxidation. Of course, some wines were always made with skin contact, but what you got would be definitely rustic. Not anymore. Ryan Glaab's "His" Vermentino combines a little extra heft from skin contact with a remarkable freshness, even after a few years in bottle. Great food wine, excellent with salmon or creamy pastas.

Husband and wife team, his is fermented on the skins and more time in barrel. Golden in color, aromatic, with weight on the palate. Fans of orange wine should try this.
