Vermentino di Sardegna DOC 2020 Olianas

The Vermentino di Sardegna of the Olianas winery is obtained with Vermentino grapes harvested in the vineyards owned by Caosu and Porruddu: the first, characterized by granitic-calcareous soils, gives the wine minerality and therefore freshness, the second characterized by loamy-sandy soils. to the wine very elegant aromas.

20% of the grapes are harvested slightly in advance and fermented with maceration on the skins, in steel. This small mass is used as a “pied de cuve” to activate spontaneous fermentation, making the addition of selected yeasts unnecessary. The remaining part of the grapes, after destemming and soft pressing, is fermented in steel at 14 ° C-16 ° C. The aging takes place for 70% in steel on its own yeasts and for the remaining 30% in tonneaux.

Straw yellow in color, it has intense notes of pink grapefruit and lemon on the nose with details of spices and bread crust. On the palate it is refreshing and quite round, with an absolutely pleasant finish.

Perfect as an aperitif, it goes well with fish-based dishes, even very aromatic ones, and medium-aged cheeses.
