About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vines grow on calcareous soils formed from marly limestone sediments.

Vinification

Cold maceration is followed by gentle pressing and natural settling. Fermentation proceeds at a controlled temperature.

Ageing

The wine matures on its fine lees for approximately 60 days.

Technical data

Dry Nasco di Cagliari DOC. Available in a 750 ml format.

Tasting profile

Straw yellow. The broad, harmonious aroma brings together yellow flowers, tropical fruit and subtle musky notes. The palate is soft and enveloping, echoing the aromas and concluding with a long, pleasant finish.

Serving and pairing

Pair with seafood starters; culurgiones filled with potato and dressed with mint; seafood or artichoke risotto; seafood pasta; stewed or grilled fish; white meat; or medium-aged cheeses.
