Contini Vernaccia di Oristano Riserva 0.375L 1997

Still white Vernaccia di Oristano Riserva, 18% ABV, produced by Contini in Sardinia. 100% Vernaccia di Oristano, 0.375 L bottle, 1997 vintage. A wine that tells the story of a historic winery, the first and oldest in Sardinia, which has been producing wines of great character for over a century. Aged in oak and chestnut barrels for at least 15 years, kept full to allow the development of the characteristic layer of "flor" yeasts that generates the unmistakable aromas of Vernaccia di Oristano. Golden yellow with amber highlights. Ample and persistent, with hints of toasted hazelnuts and almond blossoms. Dry, warm, and full-bodied; excellent structure, lingering finish with a characteristic almond flavor.
