The grapes come from the Vallata di San Leonardo near Luras, from shallow, loose granite soils with abundant weathered granite sand, few nutrients and very low water-holding capacity. The grapes are harvested by hand at low yields in mid-October. Before white-wine production, the fruit undergoes 72 hours of cold maceration at 5 °C; the wine then ages for four to six months in the cellar. It shows aromas of yellow wildflowers, fruit and salty minerality, with a fresh, juicy opening and a soft, enveloping finish. Source: technical information from Vinital and Cantine Gallura.
