Angialis Isola dei Nuraghi bianco dessert wine - IGT Sardinia 0.5L

A dessert wine from Sardinia made from the autochthonous Nasco grape variety, supplemented by a small proportion of Malvasia di Cagliari. The Angialis from Argiolas stands for the sweet side of the island: dense, round and Mediterranean.

The grapes grow on the Siurgus estate at an altitude of 230 meters, on clay-silicate soils with lithosols and sandstone. Mild winters, little rainfall and hot, windy summers characterize the climate. Harvesting is done by hand after the grapes have fully ripened on the vine. After gentle pressing, the must ferments slowly at 22–25 °C in stainless steel tanks, and the wine then matures in barriques.

It glows intensely straw-yellow in the glass. On the nose, it shows a powerful Mediterranean bouquet with terpenic notes, as are typical for Nasco. On the palate, it appears round and full, medium-sweet to almost sweet, with aromas that clearly reflect the fruit of the grape.

Serve it well chilled at 10–12 °C, with aged blue cheese, almond pastries or Sardinian seadas. It also works solo for the end of a convivial evening.
