TASTING NOTES
The Vermentino di Sardegna DOC 2024 by Antonella Corda is a white wine that embodies the essence of Mediterranean fragrances, with notes of orange blossoms, grapefruit, lemon, sage, and capers. This wine is produced in the Serdiana area, north of Cagliari, on marl and limestone soils, which confer a unique and complex personality to the wine. The 2024 vintage in Sardinia was influenced by drought, reducing production quantities but maintaining grape quality due to fewer diseases and pests. This scenario suggests that the Vermentino di Sardegna DOC 2024 has excellent quality, despite reduced quantities. Serdiana is known for its mild climate, refreshed by sea breezes, and for its suitable soils, predominantly limestone and marl, which allow for the maturation of excellent grapes. This unique terroir contributes to the complexity and freshness of the wines produced here. Vermentino is a versatile and aromatic grape variety, known for its floral and citrus notes. In Sardinia, this variety expresses its characteristics best, thanks to the local climate and terroir. Visually, the wine presents a straw yellow colour. On the nose, intense aromas of orange blossoms, grapefruit, lemon, sage, and capers are appreciated. On the palate, it is fresh and savory, with a persistent and mineral finish. The Vermentino di Sardegna DOC pairs perfectly with shellfish, fish-based dishes, and appetizers. It is also ideal for accompanying white meats and fresh cheeses, thanks to its freshness and savouriness. The Antonella Corda Winery is a boutique winery located in Serdiana, founded by Antonella Corda in 2010, who inherited the family's winemaking tradition. The company is noted for its attention to sustainability and quality, having received important awards, such as the Tre Bicchieri for the Cannonau di Sardegna DOC 2016.
