Vermentino di Sardegna DOC - Sella & Mosca

The Vermentino di Sardegna from the Sardinian wine-growing region reveals itself in the glass in a brilliantly shimmering light yellow. Poured into a white wine glass, this Old World white wine presents wonderfully youthful and fragrant aromas of honeysuckle, gooseberry, orange blossom and pineapple, rounded off by further fruity nuances.

The Sella & Mosca Vermentino di Sardegna presents itself to the wine enthusiast pleasantly dry. This white wine never appears coarse or lean, as one might expect from a wine at the premium entry level. On the palate, the texture of this light-footed white wine is wonderfully crisp and silky. The finish of this youthful white wine from the Sardinian wine-growing region is ultimately captivating with a good length. The aftertaste is also accompanied by mineral hints from the slate- and granite-dominated soils.

Vinification of the Vermentino di Sardegna by Sella & Mosca

This wine clearly focuses on a single grape variety, namely Vermentino. For this wonderfully elegant varietal wine from Sella & Mosca, only immaculate grapes were used. In Sardinia, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on slate and granite soils. After the harvest, the grapes are quickly brought to the press house. There they are selected and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the Vermentino di Sardegna can further harmonize on the fine lees for a few months.
