VERMENTINO DI GALLURA 'FUNTANALIRAS ORO' CANTINA DEL VERMENTINO 2023 DESCRIPTION

Vermentino di Gallura "Funtanaliras Oro" from the Vermentino winery, is a fresh, light and pleasantly fruity white wine produced in Monti, in the province of Olbia, Sardinia. This label is made from pure Vermentino grapes from vines trained on medium hills in an area strongly exposed to winds that can mitigate the hot summer climate at an altitude between 350 and 500 meters. The vines, which are of different ages, are raised using the espalier method on soils characterized by rocky granitic disintegration soils. The winery is a cooperative that can count on as many as 200 conferring members and about 600 hectares under vines that extend across the territories of Gallura, in the municipalities of Monti, Telti, Olbia, Loiri, Porto San Paolo, Berchidda and Calangianus.

Cantina del Vermentino's "Funtanaliras Oro" Vermentino di Gallura is made from carefully selected grapes harvested at the moment of perfect ripeness. The bunches that reach the winery are gently pressed and then undergo alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks for several weeks. This is followed by racking and clarification, if necessary, after which the wine is aged for a few months in stainless steel containers before being bottled and finally ready for release.

Vermentino di Gallura's "Funtanaliras Oro" shows a pale straw yellow colour with light greenish highlights. On the nose appear intense aromas of yellow-fleshed fruit and exotic fruit, including peach, quince and banana, floral notes of jasmine, acacia flowers and herbs, then veering into slight mineral and dried fruit hints, such as almond. In the mouth, it is soft, dry, delicate and enveloping, characterized by a nice freshness and an almondy finish. This white from the Vermentino winery is a pleasant wine whose harmony lies in the balance between mineral savoriness and juicy fruit sweetness. "Of bitter forest flowers and almonds, it bears the scent, and its name has an ancient sound." This Vermentino with such a singular name is truly the emblem of Sardinian Vermentino.
