Vinicola Cherchi
Tuvaoes Vermentino 2021
Vermentino di Saregna DOC
Sourced from best bunches of a single vineyard in Cherchi’s estate, Tuvaoes is a standard-bearer for high quality Sardinian Vermentino. Featuring a fine concentration of flavors, Tuvaoes is textured and rich while showing off a depth of minerality that this corner of the island is known for, a result of Mistral Wind influence that precedes the Rhône Valley.
Vineyard
Cherchi works over 30 hectares in the northwestern part of Sardinia, around the town of Usini. Their vineyards are on average 200m above sea level, with mixed calcareous and clay-based soils. Tuvaoes is a site chosen for this individual bottling.
Winemaking
Destemmed and pressed into stainless steel, both for fermentation and several months of aging.
Tasting Note
Gentle grass and wildflower notes on the nose, the palate follows with aromatic intensity and a bright, crunchy profile.
