About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Vermentino comes from the Conca Sa Raighina vineyards, in the countryside around Monti, at 350 metres above sea level. The soil is particularly loose, and the summer sun is hot; together they give the variety an intense aroma and pleasant flavour. The first Vermentino vines here were planted in 1987.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand into small containers. Winemaking consists of gentle pressing, settling of the must, and fermentation at a controlled temperature.

Tasting profile

Elegant, refreshing and dry, with an intense aroma and pleasant flavour.

Label / history

"Taerra" is named after the archaeological excavations near the winery.
