In her book Cucina, Marcella Hazan adapted a soup of mussels, cranberry beans, celery, and basil she had once enjoyed in a restaurant in the northeastern Sardinian port town of Olbia. “When I was working on seafood recipes one summer,” she wrote, “it was the one dish that, once tasted, my friends asked me to make again and again.” Across the island, along Sardinia’s northwestern coast, Vigne Rada makes this bianco that serves as a perfect accompaniment to Hazan’s rendition of the dish. The Vermentino’s crispness and saline notes marry beautifully with the plump mussels, while the supporting flavors of ripe and freshly picked orchard fruit wonderfully complement the soup’s flavorful, hearty beans and spice.
