2024 Pala - Vermentino di Sardegna DOC Stellato (750ml)

Sun, sea, and wild Mediterranean scrub in a glass — this Vermentino from the esteemed Pala estate is a vivid and joyful expression of Sardinia's most beloved white grape. The Stellato — meaning "starry" — is sourced from carefully tended vineyards across the sun-scorched island, where the relentless Sardinian sun, cooling sea breezes, and ancient granite and limestone soils conspire to produce Vermentino of exceptional aromatic intensity and refreshing vitality. Pale straw with golden highlights, the nose bursts with ripe citrus, white peach, tropical fruit, fresh almond, and the signature aromatic lift of wild herbs and sea salt that makes great Sardinian Vermentino so instantly recognizable and irresistible. On the palate it is medium-bodied and vibrant, with mouthwatering acidity, a slightly bitter almond finish characteristic of the variety, and a clean, saline, minerally persistence that lingers beautifully. Pala is one of Sardinia's most respected family estates, farming with deep respect for the island's ancient viticultural heritage — and the Stellato reflects that commitment in every sip. Endlessly versatile at the table and utterly perfect for warm weather drinking
