Giunco ​​Vermentino di Sardegna DOC

A Vermentino that shows what Sardinia is capable of: salty, lively, with the typical bite of the island.

Mesa is one of the most well-known wineries in Sardinia and is located in the southwest of the island, near Sant'Anna Arresi. The winery was founded in 2004 and works with autochthonous grape varieties — Vermentino is the white lead variety. The Giunco (Sardinian for reed) bears the name of the coastal vegetation that surrounds the vineyards.

In the glass, it shows light straw yellow with green reflections. On the nose, lemon blossom, broom, and a hint of white peach, underneath a subtle herbal spice. On the palate, fresh acidity, medium body, and the slightly bitter, almost salty finish typical for Vermentino — a direct reference to the proximity of the vineyards to the sea.

The Winery

Mesa

The Italian winery Mesa was founded in 2004 in Sardinia. The young company is located in the Carbonia-Iglesias region, whose terroir is characterized by sandy soils.

The given soil conditions allow for the cultivation and subsequent production of high-quality wines. On the sites of the Mesa winery, various grape varieties such as Cannonau, Carigano or Carignan, and Vermentino are grown and processed into wines in the winery.
