Description
In a nutshell:
This Sardinian white is sunshine in a glass, offering a delightful burst of citrus and a lingering sea-breeze freshness.
The lowdown:
There's more to this than the limpid whites that sometimes made from Vermentino. This Sardinian number is a revelation. It opens with a burst of sunshine - all juicy pineapple and ripe mango - laced with a refreshing twist of grapefruit peel and a hint of fragrant herbs growing in a warm stone wall. Then, surprise! Take a sip and you're met with a real weight and depth of flavour. Think luscious peaches and plums, all tangled up with a touch of marzipan that lingers on the finish. Turns out, these grapes hail from a family vineyard nestled on gentle slopes in Sardinia's northwest. Clever folks, they, keeping things simple by fermenting and ageing this beauty in stainless steel tanks. That way, the true essence of the grape shines through, untamed and utterly delicious.
The Producer:
At Poderi Parpinello they forge delicious Sardinian wines with heart and history. The 30-hectare estate hums with the experience of three generations, now guided by the father-and-son team of Giampaolo and Paolo. Their focus lies in expressing the island's sun-baked terroir through traditional winemaking wisdom, enhanced by a touch of modern technique. Their wines brim with the Mediterranean's warmth - expect intense aromas, ripe flavours, and an undeniable sense of place from their thoughtfully crafted bottles.
When to drink:
This juicy, aromatic white is sunshine with a backbone - think roast lamb, lightly spiced chicken, or simply savoured on its own by an open window.
