Unique Selling Point
One of the top wines produced in Sardinia.
Vineyard
Mostly ungrafted vineyards, cultivated using the low bush (alberello) vine training system in sea-facing sandy soil.
Viticulture
The vines are mosltly ungrafted and cultivated in relatively loose and medium-textured, sandy and calcareous soils.
Vinification
Alcoholic fermentation in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks for 15 days, with frequent pumping over. In early December, the wine begins the ageing process in fine-grain French oak barrique for a period of around 18 months. The wine acquires complexity, style and longevity. The ageing continues in the bottle for approximately 12 months.
Food Match
Ideal with game, hearty roasts, and slow-cooked red meats; it also pairs well with grilled red tuna belly and medium- and mature cheeses.
