The Vermentino di Sardegna DOC "Tyrsos" from Contini Winery is a white wine that excellently highlights the varietal characteristics of Vermentino, a grape widely cultivated in the Sardinia region. The "Tyrsos" presents itself with a light straw-yellow color, enriched with greenish reflections that hint at its freshness and liveliness.
On the nose, this wine offers a complex aromatic bouquet, featuring notes of white-fleshed fruits such as apple and pear, along with citrus undertones and subtle floral accents. The influence of the Sardinian soil and the sea breeze impart a characteristic hint of salinity that blends well with the fruity aromas.
On the palate, the Vermentino di Sardegna DOC "Tyrsos" is balanced and well-structured. The entry is smooth, with the fruity aromas consistently reappearing on the palate, followed by a pleasant acidity that supports its drinkability. The finish is clean and persistent, with a return of citrus and mineral tones that entice another sip.
This wine pairs wonderfully with light appetizers, seafood dishes, and shellfish, but is equally enjoyable on its own as an aperitif. The traditional vinification methods used by Contini Winery preserve all the native qualities of the grape, resulting in a wine that is both a tribute to Sardinian roots and a delightful discovery for the palate. Ideal for those who want to explore the authentic flavors of Sardinia through a glass of fresh and aromatic wine.
