Costamolino, named for the area, is made from Vermentino, an aromatic white grape variety that thrives in the Mediterranean climate of Sardinia. The grapes are harvested in August and September and vinified in stainless-steel tanks to retain acidity. A small percentage sees malolactic fermentation to give the wine roundness and texture.
From our best-selling (and Bassins direct import) grower Foucher Lebrun... this "baby Sancerre" drinks way above its price point!
