Altair Estate Vermentino 2024 by Altair Estate in Margaret River is a zippy, Mediterranean‑styled white that’s all about freshness, texture and easy summer drinking, ideal for anyone who loves something a bit more interesting than standard Sauvignon.

In the glass, Altair Estate Vermentino 2024 typically shows lemon zest, grapefruit pith and crunchy green apple, with hints of sea spray, white florals and a faintly salty, herbal edge. The palate is light to medium‑bodied, brisk and mouth‑watering, with a gentle pithy grip and a dry, savoury finish that screams for food.

This Altair Vermentino is made for seafood and sunshine – think grilled prawns, salt‑and‑pepper squid, fish tacos, fresh oysters or a simple tomato and basil salad. It is exactly the sort of coastal, drink‑now white that works beautifully for long lunches, aperitivo hour and warm‑weather gatherings.
