The wine region of Barbagia

Traditional Sardinian varieties produce full-bodied reds with intense notes of black cherry, blackberry, ripe plum, myrtle, garrigue and a balsamic-spicy touch, firm tannins and a warm palate. Some fresh whites and approachable rosés. Untamed mountain identity, authentic wines.

The word of the wine: Yeast
Micro-organisms at the base of all fermentative processes. A wide variety of yeasts live and thrive naturally in the vineyard, provided that treatments do not destroy them. Unfortunately, their replacement by laboratory-selected yeasts is often the order of the day and contributes to the standardization of the wine. Yeasts are indeed involved in the development of certain aromas.
