Aghiloia Vermentino di Gallura Superiore
The Aghiloia Vermentino di Gallura Superiore is a white wine produced by Cantina Sociale del Vermentino, a cooperative winery in Italy. This wine is crafted exclusively from the Vermentino grape, a classic Mediterranean variety that thrives in the hills of the Gallura area. It is bottled in a 720ml format with an alcohol content of 15% and holds the Superiore classification.
Vermentino di Gallura is Sardinia's only DOCG appellation, situated in the northern part of the island. The region of Sardinia is geographically distinct from the Italian mainland, characterized by a rugged landscape of granite and limestone. Vineyards here stretch from the windswept coastlines to the wild, mountainous interior known as Barbagia. In Gallura specifically, the granite-rich soils, constant winds, and close proximity to the sea heavily influence the viticulture. This area is widely recognized for producing Sardinia's most prestigious white wines and is considered one of Italy's premier locations for the Vermentino grape.
Vermentino is a prominent grape variety across the Mediterranean, frequently cultivated in Sardinia, Liguria, Provence, and Corsica. In the Sardinian terroir, it stands alongside Cannonau as one of the island's most dominant and defining grape varieties.
