Special characteristic
  • Contains sulphites

Gentle pressing of hand-picked grapes followed by fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel. The wine was left to rest for a short time before being bottled.

Straw-yellow with greenish reflections. Fragrant and intense on the nose, with apple, exotic fruit and spice. Predominantly fruity and fresh on the palate, with minerality contours. The finish is pleasant and balanced.

The estate vineyards are situated in the region of Gallura in northern Sardinia. Geologically, the terrain here tends to consist of granite and sand – soils that are rich in potassium but contain significant amounts of phosphorus and nitrogen as well. This is the ideal terroir for growing Vermentino.
