Vermentino di Gallura

The vines stand near Palau at an altitude of 30 to 60 metres on morainic soils of sand and gravel; the estate describes the site as influenced by the sea and a well-ventilated summer climate. The grapes are picked in mid-August and vinified traditionally as a white wine. The wine matures for six months in stainless steel, followed by four months in bottle. In the glass, it shows a pale yellow colour with golden reflections, along with aromas of white flowers, Mediterranean herbs, ripe yellow peach and salty-mineral, iodine notes. The palate is rich and harmonious, with fruity persistence, fresh acidity and a long, salty finish. Production of the vintage totals 5,000 bottles.
