Pariglia Vermentino di Sardegna DOC

Contini is one of Sardinia's most historic and iconic wineries, with a tradition dating back to 1898. Founded by Salvatore Contini in Cabras, in the province of Oristano, the company has been a benchmark for over a century in the production of wines that authentically express the Sardinian terroir. Contini focuses particularly on promoting the island's native grape varieties, especially Vernaccia di Oristano. This unique varietal is the flagship of Contini's production, producing oxidative white wines of great complexity and longevity, capable of aging beautifully. In addition to Vernaccia, Contini also produces excellent wines from other Sardinian grape varieties, such as Cannonau, Vermentino, Nieddera (a grape almost exclusive to the Sinis, the area of Cabras), and Cagnulari. The company's philosophy has always been to combine tradition with innovation, respecting the deep connection to the land and using modern techniques to best enhance the characteristics of the grapes. The Contini winery is now run by the fourth generation of the family, who continues to carry on Salvatore's legacy with passion and dedication, helping to spread Sardinian winemaking culture throughout the world.

The Contini family, with their experience and in-depth knowledge of the territory, carefully selects their grapes to ensure a Vermentino that is both elegant and immediate. "Pariglia" evokes a strong connection to Sardinian tradition and identity, recalling the ancient custom of the equestrian joust typical of the Oristano carnival, a symbol of dynamism and vitality. This Vermentino is the result of a skillful balance between innovation and respect for tradition, offering a tasting experience that celebrates the unique character of Sardinia. Perfect for those seeking a fresh, fragrant, and pleasantly mineral white wine, ideal for accompanying moments of conviviality and exploring the flavors of the Mediterranean.

It displays a bright straw yellow color in the glass, enriched with subtle greenish highlights that emphasize its freshness and vivacity. Its clarity is impeccable, heralding a clean and inviting wine. On the nose, it releases an intense and complex bouquet, dominated by floral notes of white flowers (such as hawthorn and honeysuckle) and fragrant hints of white fruit, particularly green apple, white peach, and light citrus notes of lemon zest. Delicate herbaceous nuances are present, along with a pleasant minerality that enhances its depth. On the palate, it is fresh and savory, with good structure and an elegant finish. Balanced acidity makes it lively and drinkable, while the typical minerality of Sardinian Vermentino emerges clearly, lending a pleasant sensation of cleanliness. The finish is harmonious and leaves a delicate citrus and almond aftertaste, inviting the next sip. Excellent with raw and cooked seafood appetizers, fish and seafood first courses (such as spaghetti with clams or shrimp risotto), and baked or grilled fish main courses. Perfect with fresh salads, grilled vegetables, soft fresh cheeses, and light white meat dishes. Also ideal as an aperitif, thanks to its freshness and aromatic notes that stimulate the appetite.
