• 100% Vernaccia fermented with indigenous yeasts. • Only a brief skin contact during the fermentation. • Vernaccia di Oristano is the oldest DOC in Sardegna, founded in 1971. • Vernaccia di Oristano has been Contini’s flagship wine for 120 years. • From the Province of Oristano, mid-western coast of Sardegna. • Alluvial, sandy, slightly clayey soils. • After the traditional white winemaking process with soft pressing and temperature-controlled fermentation, the wine matures in non-topped-off oak and chestnut barrels (known as “Caratelli”) for at least 4 years. • The oxygenation, together with the constant temperature range, allows the formation of the “Flor”, a film of yeasts that gives the wine its characteristic sherry-like aromas.

Country: Italy

It isn't difficult to understand why Italy is famed not just for the quality of its wines, but also for the vast variety and range of characteristics found in the wines there. The terrain of the country varies wildly, from the lush rolling green hills and valley of Tuscany, to the sun drenched rocky coasts of Sicily, the mountainous and alpine regions of the north, and the marshy lowlands of the east. Italy really does have a little bit of everything. Combine this huge range of landscapes with an almost perfect climate for grape cultivation, and you have a country seemingly designed for viticultural excellence. The results speak for themselves, and it is clear to see that wine has become an inseparable part of Italian culture as a result of its abundance and brilliance. Each village, city and region has a local wine perfectly matched with the cuisine of the area, and not an evening passes without the vast majority of Italian families raising a glass of locally sourced wine with pride and pleasure.
