Vermentino di Gallura Superiore Monteoro 2022

Monteoro is a deep and expressive Vermentino with an intense taste and a fresh flavor. It is no coincidence that Vermentino di Gallura is the only DOCG in Sardinia, the granite in the soil of Gallura makes life difficult for the Vermentino vines and forces the roots to go deep. The result is a wine with a rich, powerful, pronounced taste. The vineyards of Sella & Mosca in Gallura are located on the southern slope of Mount Limbara where the daily temperature variations in summer are accentuated, favoring the accumulation of flavor compounds in the grapes. In the cellar no invasive practices are adopted in order to preserve the freshness of the Vermentino aromas.

The de-stemmed grapes are left to cold macerate before fermentation. Then they are gently pressed and the free run must is clarified by static decantation. It then ferments in stainless steel vats at a low temperature. Malolactic fermentation is prevented.
