VERMENTINO DI GALLURA “KINTARI” IS ALBA, WITH ITS HARMONY. ITS PROMISE OF SOMETHING NEW THAT HAS YET TO SURPRISE. IT REFLECTS THE EARTH, THE SALINITY, THE SARDINIAN DEPTH. IT LIVES IN A SOIL THAT SHOWS ITS GRANITE NATURE, THEN SANDY, RICH IN MINERALS. LIKE SILK TO THE TASTE, IT AFFIRMS A STRONG STRUCTURE THAT DECLARES MEMORY.
THE WINE:
The gaze moves from the hills of Gallura towards the sea. Here the Vermentino meets the eternity of the Mediterranean horizon. Straw yellow, with greenish reflections. On the nose, citrus and white-fleshed fruit, acacia flowers and Mediterranean herbs stand out. On the palate it is rich, savory and very harmonious.
TERRAIN:
From sandy loam of granitic origin to clayey/sandy with a strong presence of quartz stones made up of minerals such as quartz, on a basic matrix that goes from a fine grain to a glassy structure.
VINIFICATION:
Manual harvest in crates. Destemming and soft pressing at low temperature. Malolactic fermentation not carried out. Fermentation in stainless steel vats at 16/18 degrees. Further refinement for two months in the bottle.
FOOD PAIRING:
Excellent when paired with steamed shellfish, it also goes very well with vegetarian first courses.
