Costamolino Vermentino di Sardegna
Vermentino is the grape variety of Sardinia — and Argiolas from Serdiana is one of the wineries that brings it to the glass most convincingly. The Costamolino shows what this island can do in terms of white wine: tension instead of heaviness, salt instead of sweetness.
Argiolas was founded in 1938 by Antonio Argiolas and is today, in the third generation, a fixed point of the Sardinian wine scene. The vines for the Costamolino grow in the hinterland of Cagliari on sandy, well-drained soils — the Mediterranean climate and the sea breeze directly shape the style.
In the glass, it glows light yellow with green reflections. On the nose, citrus peel, white peach, and a hint of herbs — rosemary, almost. On the palate, the characteristic Vermentino profile emerges: lively acidity, a delicate bitter almond note in the finish, and a mineral-salty aftertaste that reminds one of sea air. Medium body, fresh, uncomplicated to drink.
- Temperature: 10–12 °C
- Pairs with: grilled calamari, linguine alle vongole, goat cheese, light vegetable quiches

Quick answers
How does the Costamolino Vermentino taste — is it more fresh or full-bodied?
It is clearly on the fresh side: lively acidity, citrus zest, white peach, and a hint of rosemary on the nose. The finish brings a typical bitter almond note and a mineral-salty aftertaste. Medium body, not a gram of heaviness.
Is the Vermentino dry?
Yes, completely dry. The freshness comes exclusively from the acidity and the sea salt minerality — no residual sugar.
What does the Costamolino pair best with?
It is in its element with seafood and fish: grilled calamari, linguine alle vongole, or light antipasti. It also pairs well with goat cheese and vegetable quiche — anywhere you need freshness, not intensity.
At what temperature should I serve it?
Ideally at 8–10 °C — i.e., well-chilled from the refrigerator, shortly before serving. If it is too warm, it loses its tension and the salty aftertaste fades into the background.
How long does an opened bottle last?
Sealed in the refrigerator, it lasts 2–3 days after opening. After that, the freshness noticeably fades — this wine lives from its liveliness, so it is better to drink it promptly.
Is the Costamolino also suitable for wine beginners?
Well-suited. It is characterful enough to be interesting, but not complex in a way that requires experience. Those who like dry white wines and love seafood will find an uncomplicated entry into Sardinian Vermentino here.
The Winery
Argiolas – the cradle of the Sardinian wine renaissance. Founded in 1938 by Antonio Argiolas in Serdiana, the 230-hectare winery is managed today in the third generation by his grandchildren. Antonio was ahead of his time: larger vineyard areas, focus on quality.
With oenologist legend Giacomo Tachis as a consultant, the sons invested in modernization. Only indigenous grape varieties are cultivated – many almost forgotten. Vermentino, Cannonau, Monica, Carignano – the Mediterranean climate gives them ideal conditions.
The highlight: Turriga, regularly awarded 3 glasses in the Gambero Rosso. Sardinian, elegant, international. Over 2 million bottles annually – Sardinian wine culture for the world.
