Vermentino from a vineyard of about 45 years of age, located in the Municipality of Badesi (SS) in the north of Sardinia, in an area better known as Gallura.
it is a white wine obtained from a careful selection of grapes only
The vineyard is right in front of the sea, about 200 meters. As the crow flies from the famous “Spiaggia Le Dune” with rows facing south-west; the soil is exclusively silica sand, poor in organic substances, but very rich in minerals, characteristics that give a particular aromatic complexity to the wine. Since it was planted in this vineyard, neither fertilizers nor fertilizers of chemical derivation have ever been used.
After careful monitoring of the pH and the sugar level, the grapes were harvested manually in plastic containers on August 23, 2022, with a yield of 54 quintals per hectare. The harvested bunches were immediately transferred to the cellar using refrigerated vehicles, and once destemmed, the grapes were softly pressed using a press
pneumatic: the juice obtained was then left for about two hours in contact with the skins (skin maceration).
The fermentation and subsequent vinification were carried out in steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The wine was left on the fine lees, but with frequent bâtonnage,305 for around 7 months. In March, an initial clarification was carried out by cold decantation and subsequently bottled in April.
