Nervy, saline whites with cutting acidity and enveloping richness, showing aromas of grapefruit, lime, pear, white flowers, fresh almond, fennel and marine iodine notes. Slightly bitter finish. Star of Sardinia (Vermentino di Gallura DOCG), Liguria, coastal Tuscany (Bolgheri) and Corsica. Also in Provence and Languedoc-Roussillon as Rolle. An autochthonous Mediterranean variety.
Mythical Sardinian DOC of Oristano on the lower Tirso valley, oxidative ageing under a veil of flor (partially filled botti). Vernaccia di Oristano as the exclusive white king signature: amber yellow robe, intense and ethereal with complex oxidative notes of walnut husk, almond, dried fruits, candied citrus and a superb saline-peaty touch, warm and persistent palate. Produced as Secco, Superiore, Riserva and Liquoroso. A unique Sardinian sherry style.
