Mete is Agricola Carlini's Vermentino, bottled as a Costa Toscana IGT. Vermentino is the estate's flagship white grape — Lorenzo Carlini has noted it performs especially well on this coastal Suvereto site — and Mete showcases the variety's characteristic freshness and salinity, shaped by sea breezes off the nearby Tyrrhenian coast.
Vermentino is what Lorenzo Carlini himself calls his estate's strongest grape here — Mete is the proof.
