About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc come from young vines planted along an oleander-lined avenue in the southwestern part of the Sella & Mosca estate in Alghero.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested only during the cool morning hours. After a brief cold maceration and gentle pressing, the juice runs off naturally before settling and undergoing a slow fermentation at a controlled low temperature.

Label / history

The name “Oleandro” refers to the oleander-lined avenue where the vines are planted.
