Vermentino Olianas 2024

The Vermentino Olianas is a rich and Mediterranean white, a deep and intense expression of the exceptional Sardinian white grape variety. Not only reds, of course, for a winery that makes agricultural biodiversity one of the cornerstones of its philosophy, also concerning the vine, remaining however always faithful to local varieties such as Vermentino, Cannonau, Bovale, Carignano, and Nasco, which grow without the aid of chemical or synthetic substances. The backdrop is that of Sarcidano, a sub-region of Sardinia perhaps less known to drinkers, but not for this reason lacking in potential and charm compared to other areas. Warmth therefore, mitigated by providential temperature excursions and the winds that descend from Gennargentu, all factors that contribute to the perfect ripening of the grapes. Thus, generous, intense, and territorial wines are obtained, mitigated by a centered and extremely elegant stylistic signature. Souplesse.

The Vermentino Olianas is obtained from pure grapes of the same-named variety, coming from vineyards located in Sarcidano at about 350 meters above sea level. If in the vineyard, as already mentioned,As mentioned, a bio-integral approach is followed, integrating some biodynamic practices with a strong focus on renewable energy. In the winery, fermentation occurs partly on the skins in amphora and in steel with indigenous yeasts, and partly in steel at controlled temperature. The liquid ages for 70% in steel on fine lees and for 30% in tonneau.

Vermentino Olianas presents itself in the glass with a beautiful straw-yellow color, edged with golden reflections. Rich and enveloping nose, revealing hints of ripe peach, citrus, and Mediterranean scrub. On the palate, the wine confirms itself as fulfilling and seductive, endowed with creamy texture, although it never feels complacent, as the evident softness is balanced by a precise contribution of salt and freshness.
