Let’s talk about Giunco Vermentino di Gallura DOCG - Cantina Mesa

More questions

Giunco by Cantina Mesa is a Vermentino di Sardegna DOC from Sulcis, at the extreme south-west of Sardinia. Made from Vermentino grapes, it has a bright straw-yellow colour. Its intense, Mediterranean aromatic profile reveals citrus peel, white-fleshed fruit and tropical fruit, supported by balsamic notes of Mediterranean scrub and delicate iodised nuances.

Fresh, savoury and balanced on the palate, Giunco combines lively acidity with an energetic yet enveloping character. Fruity and balsamic flavours carry through to the finish. It pairs well with fish soups, shellfish, stuffed pasta, fish-based first and main courses, and creamy cheeses. Serve chilled at 7–9 °C to highlight its aromatic clarity, freshness and marine character. A versatile white wine for aperitifs and everyday dining, it brings the distinctive freshness of Sardinia to the table while remaining easy to pair with a wide range of Mediterranean dishes.

The story
The company was founded by Gavino Sanna as a project celebrating Sardinia and its native grape varieties. Its history, also recounted in the official brand profile, includes the construction of a modern winery in the Su Baroni area and the development of wine ranges bearing evocative names linked to the territory.
Production philosophy
Mesa interprets viticulture as an act of conviviality and authenticity: the name itself, which evokes the "table", encapsulates the idea of nourishment, simplicity and a connection with the Sardinian landscape. The winemaking approach seeks to express the Mediterranean character of the Sulcis with clean, terroir-driven wines.
Terroir and vineyards
The winery is located in the valleys of Porto Pino, in the Sulcis-Iglesiente area. The vineyards are largely situated on sandy soils close to the sea: exposure, maritime influence and poor soils contribute to the wines' aromatic and saline character.
Awards and recognition
Cantina Mesa's wines have been featured and scored in industry guides and magazines; reported ratings include scores of up to approximately 92 points in publications such as Falstaff for wines like Giunco, Opale and Buio Buio.
