Cellar: Società Agricola Rigàtteri
Ardelia White Wine: Ardelia is a Controlled Designation of Origin white wine made from pure Vermentino grapes.
It is produced using Vermentino grapes from our vineyards, fermented in stainless steel tanks. This white wine is unique; it is fresh, fragrant, lively, fruity, very captivating, linear, and flexible, with a pronounced alcoholic body. It has an unsuspected ability to age well. Best served cool but not cold, it pairs well with many dishes. The wine has a pale straw yellow color with light greenish streaks; intense, clear, harmonious, and wide-ranging aromas; a complex aroma with notes of ripe fruit.
In the mouth, it has a rich structure, finesse, great softness, and solid acidity in balance with each other. The finish is very persistent. In summary, Ardelia is an intense wine from the start due to its explosion of scents and flavors, the right acidity within a simple yet strong structure with a pleasant taste-olfactory correspondence. It is a wine crafted to compete with the best Sardinian whites. Perfect to pair with fish and seafood dishes like the typical Catalan lobster dish – a flagship of Alghero cuisine – delicate soups and stews, risottos, appetizers with fresh cheeses and vegetables, white meats, and light dishes. Excellent as an aperitif.
