Istrale | Vermentino di Sardegna D.O.C.

Discover a wine with a straw yellow color and hints of green reflections, boasting an intense, fresh, and fruity aroma with notes of white pulp fruits. Its taste is enveloping and caressing, with a full and soft flavor. This vine is cultivated in the Senorbì area, known for its medium-textured soils composed of clayey limestones on average hilly terrain.

Great care is taken in choosing the perfect moment to harvest the grapes to achieve the right balance between sugars and acidity. The wine undergoes fermentation at low temperatures to enhance its unique characteristics. After a period of refinement in steel tanks, the wine is bottled. It is best enjoyed young within two years of harvesting, at a temperature of 10-12°C, paired with seafood appetizers, flavorful pasta dishes, or grilled fish.

  • Symbolism:
  • ISTRALE – An ancient name used by Sardinian populations to refer to the sacred double-bladed axe. The image, derived from a well-known Sardinian bronze document dating back to the 2nd millennium BC (Sa seguredda – the small axe), remained an essential apotropaic object among Sardinian populations until recent times. It can be seen as a symbol of good luck and prosperity.
