($20): There is no better producer of Vermentino than Lunae. And this light — 12.5 percent stated alcohol — and fresh IGT Vermentino, their so-called “entry level” wine, shows Lunae’s talents. A hint of minerals buttressed by saline-acidity gives this bright and zesty wine a bit of depth. Even though it is less prestigious than Lunae’s superb DOC Vermentino, it still grows in the glass. It’s a fine introduction to a top producer. Open some clams!
