Aragosta — Vermentino di Sardegna DOC
Sardegna, Italy 🇮🇹

Overview
A 100% Vermentino from Sardegna DOC, crafted in a fresh, coastal-driven style that captures the island’s marine influence. This is a casual, vibrant expression built on lift, salinity, and drinkability, a true Mediterranean white with energy to spare.

Aromas & Flavors
Bright lemon zest, green apple, and white peach with clear sea-breeze salinity and subtle herbal undertones. There’s a crisp citrus core that feels sharp and focused, yet never aggressive.

Mouthfeel
Lively and razor-fresh, with uplifting acidity and pronounced saline tension. It’s “crazy sharp” in precision but rounded at the edges, finishing smooth with a light, pleasant textural glide that keeps it balanced and highly approachable.

Food Pairings
Grilled shrimp, seafood linguine, oysters, calamari, light fried fish, beachside antipasti, or simply chilled on a warm afternoon.

Verdict
A bright, energetic Sardinian Vermentino that delivers exactly what you want from a coastal white, freshness, salinity, and clarity. Casual in spirit, yet technically well-balanced and satisfying.

🍷 Personal Pick
This is the type of Vermentino that makes you appreciate the island breeze in liquid form. Sharp, refreshing, and dangerously easy to drink, a reliable Mediterranean companion. — 24 days ago

Part 2 of grocery store adventures… lemon pith, hay, tart white peach, cantaloupe, orange blossom on the nose. On the palate lemonade and tangerine pith, white peach, hints of lemongrass and basil and a touch of saline with a nice viscous body and a medium finish. Impressive value for a budget buy from my neighborhood Giant. Probably would go well with seafood, salads, and light tangy cheeses (or faux-cheeses ;) ) — 3 years ago

Hints of berries very much, however, enjoying tasting any Cannonau I can get my hands on these days. Love the grape. #cannanaou — 4 months ago

Deep Ruby with aromas of berries, leather and earthy notes, blend of 80% Sangiovese, 10% Malvasia Nera and 10% Colorino. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberries with leather, cacao and earthy herbs. Long finish, round tannins ending with fruit and earthy character. Very nice!! — 3 years ago
