Nuragus of Cagliari Organic Rope 2022

Nuragus GRAPE VARIETY

ALCOHOL CONTENT 12.5%

ORIGIN
Vineyards grown with espalier and Guyot pruning, on the calcareous-marly soils typical of this area, in the countryside of Serdiana (CA).

PROCESSING
The grapes are harvested in the first days of October. Once transported to the cellar, they are subjected to white vinification, using pneumatic presses, in order to extract the best free-run must from the grapes. The wine ages for six months in steel containers at a controlled temperature, in the presence of the dead yeasts, to improve its structure. Once the maturation is complete, the wine is bottled and refined in glass for a few months before being put on the market.

CHARACTERISTICS
Color: pale straw yellow with greenish reflections.
Aroma: notes of white pulp fruit and white flowers. Mineral hints given by the particular terroir.
Taste: fresh and mineral, medium structure, smooth drinking and great finesse. Good persistence and intensity.

COMBINATIONS
Antonella Corda's Nuragus is a white wine that is excellent as an aperitif, and pairs well with savoury appetizers and canapés. Perfect at the table with seafood appetizers, delicate first courses and simple seafood second courses. A classic with seafood crudités, such as oysters.
