Let’s talk about Alghero Torbato DOC - Catore - Sella & Mosca

More questions

L'Alghero Torbato DOC - Catore di Sella & Mosca è un vino bianco di spiccata personalità, proveniente dalla rinomata regione vinicola della Sardegna. Questo vino è ottenuto dal vitigno Torbato, una varietà autoctona che Sella & Mosca ha sapientemente valorizzato nel corso degli anni.

Alla vista, il Catore si presenta con un colore giallo paglierino brillante, arricchito da leggeri riflessi verdognoli che evocano freschezza e vivacità. Al naso, rivela un bouquet complesso e aromatico, con profumi che spaziano dalle note floreali di fiori bianchi e camomilla, fino a suggestioni di frutta matura come mela e agrumi, con un leggero sottofondo di note minerali che ricordano il terroir sardo.

Al palato, il Catore si distingue per la sua freschezza e sapidità. È un vino di buona struttura, caratterizzato da una piacevole acidità che bilancia perfettamente la componente alcolica, rendendolo armonioso e ben equilibrato. La chiusura è persistente e pulita, lasciando una sensazione di morbidezza e una leggera scia minerale.

Ideale come aperitivo, l'Alghero Torbato DOC - Catore si abbina perfettamente a piatti di pesce, frutti di mare, o a gustose ricette a base di verdure. È un vino che celebra la tradizione enologica sarda e il talento di Sella & Mosca nel creare vini di alta qualità che rispecchiano il territorio.

The story
Founded in 1899 by two Piedmontese entrepreneurs, Erminio Sella and Edgardo Mosca, the estate was established through the reclamation of the plain north of Alghero. Over time the company has developed across a large Mediterranean property; alongside the historic winery and service buildings there are hospitality facilities created in the old farm buildings. Since 2016 Sella & Mosca has been part of the Terra Moretti group, which has initiated renovation and investment works on the estate.
Production philosophy
It combines the enhancement of Sardinian native grape varieties with the cultivation and celebration of international varieties. It promotes practices focused on environmental sustainability and on the connection with the territory, with sustainability certification projects.
Terroir and vineyards
The estate is located in the La Nurra area in northwest Sardinia, near Alghero. The vineyards benefit from calcareous, sandy and clay soils and from the influence of the sea. Sella & Mosca also has vineyards in other parts of the island, such as Gallura and Sulcis.
Awards and recognition
Some wines from Sella & Mosca have received notable recognitions: for example, the Vermentino "Monteoro" was awarded Gambero Rosso's 3 Bicchieri. Several labels have also received ratings and scores from specialist publications.
