    Giacomelli, Italy
    The estate was established in 1993 when Roberto Petacchi started managing the vineyards of his grandfather Pietro Giacomelli. The vineyards stand within the area of Castelnuovo Magra, the southern zone of Liguria, in the heart of the Colli di Luni appellation. The combination of the mild climate, due to the Tyrrenian sea, and of the soil rich in minerals, results in wines with a distinctive and special character, the ones made with Vermentino grapes in particular. These wines are made from different vineyards and with different blends, but all of them reflect the passion of Roberto Petacchi for this unique terroir.

    A fantastic, aromatic white grape that grows with great success in Sardinia, Tuscany and in lesser proportions on the island of Corsica. Somm Secret—Vermentino is thought to be genetically identical to Liguria’s Pigato grape and Peidmont’s Favorita. It comprises a large proportion of the whites in southern France where it is called Rolle.

    Forming a crescent along Italy’s northwestern Mediterranean coast, Liguria is one of the country’s smallest regions. Though its ports, Genoa and Savona have welcomed foreign influence for centuries, the region today is experiencing a fresh interest in its own indigenous varieties. Liguria commits large efforts to the white Vermentino (also called Pigato) and the red varieties Rossese, Sangiovese and Dolcetto (also called Ormeasco in Liguria).

    Liguria has no shortage of dizzyingly steep, coastal vineyards. On its eastern end in Cinqueterre, Vermentino grows along cliffs overlooking the Mediterranean. On its west, bordering France, terraced, seaside vineyards are home to Rossese di Dolceacqua, Liguria’s powerful yet highly aromatic red.
