Assoluto

ASSOLUTO

Isola dei Nuraghi, Indicazione Geografica Tipica

Assoluto means “absolute” in Italian. Absolutely Sardinian, like the Nasco and Vermentino grapes with which it is produced.

Grape Varieties: 80% Nasco and 20% Vermentino

Vineyard Site: Is Crabilis (Ussana)

Altitude: 150-180m ASL

Soil: Medium calcium clay hills

Vineyard age: 30 years

Cellar Notes: The grapes are dried naturally at the vineyard on the vines for 15 days. Pressed by hand, fermentation takes place in small stainless-steel vats. Refinement follows for 6 months in stainless steel and is then placed in bottles for another 6 months to complete the process of refinement.​

Tasting Notes: Deep golden honey color, with intense aromas reminiscent of dried fruits and ripe apricots with a sweet, nutty finish. A complex but not dense or sticky dessert wine, with a pleasant salinity adding freshness, making it the perfect match for aged cheeses and desserts that are not excessively sweet.
