Santa Maria Aragosta Rosé

An uncomplicated Sardinian who simply works after a long day: fresh, easy to drink, without any rough edges.

Cantina Santa Maria la Palma is located in northwestern Sardinia, in the Nurra plain near Alghero—a region known for its aromatic white wines and light rosé wines. Founded in 1954, the cooperative now cultivates around 700 hectares, primarily with indigenous grape varieties such as Vermentino and Cannonau. The Aragosta—named after the Sardinian spiny lobster—is among the estate's most renowned wines.

In the glass, the rosé displays a pale salmon pink. The nose is dominated by strawberry and pomegranate, with a hint of rose petal. On the palate, it's light-bodied, with lively acidity and a short, clean finish. No oak, no residual sugar—a straightforward, everyday wine that doesn't aspire to be anything more.

Serving suggestion: Well chilled at 8–10 °C. Pairs well with grilled fish, antipasti with olives and pecorino, or simply as an aperitif on the patio. Drink now – no aging potential.
