Wine Story

Sardinia is unique. This amazing Italian island, located in the Mediterranean Sea, is home to some of the rarest wines in the country. Wine Spectator said that this island “has everything it needs to produce great wines.” And that it “offers a chance to dive into a little-known wine region that's really starting to shine.” 

This island has some of the Mediterranean's most ancient winemaking histories. Winemaking is in the blood of the Sardinian people. We aren’t joking around - winemaking dates to 1200 B.C. on this island, making it a floating artifact of wine history. Sardinia produces outstanding red wine grapes that keep all wine lovers on their toes with their mysterious origins and delicious character.

Tasting Notes

100% Vermentino. La Cala has aromas of fresh citrus, tropical fruit and white flowers accented by a mineral note and a hint of the surrounding Mediterranean vegetation. The wine has firm acidity with a soft, balanced palate which leads to a lingering finish.

Critical Reviews

Bright green-yellow. On the nose with delicate flowers, fine green spices, citrus and a hint of mint. Crisp and clear on the palate, medium weight, with delicate fruit, has a fine arc, drinks well, nice aperitif. ~90 Falstaff
