“Flor” Vernaccia di Oristano DOC 2019 secco
Attilio Contini | Sardinia
Az. Vinicola Contini S.p.A. | Via Genova 48-50 | IT 09072 Cabras
This masterful Vernaccia matures for 4 years in small Caratello barrels, whose natural shrinkage is never topped up so that the yeast flora, which is very characteristic of this Vernaccia, forms on the surface and not only produces the characteristic flavours, but also gives it its name.
Bright ochre yellow with golden reflections. Rich, multi-layered bouquet of apricot and orange zest, rounded off with a delicate almond flavour and warm honey notes. A wonderful texture and freshness on the palate, the primary yellow-fruity flavours are present, complemented by a fine salty vein with a mineral note on the finish. An absolute delight chilled as an aperitif or at approx. 16°C with dessert! SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2019 Vernaccia di Oristano Flor bursts from the glass, a deep golden-yellow color. A rich bouquet blends dried apricots and peaches with hazelnut, almond custard and a savory whiff of crushed oysters. It is nearly glycerol in feel with cooling acidity to balance and waves of ripe pit fruits, complemented by sweet spices and hints of ground ginger. This tapers off long and staining, letting a touch of heat poke through, yet not distracting. A salty sensation lingers, and the mouth is left watering for more." Vinous
"Copper-orange in colour with pronounced floral aromas of dried lemons, olives, brine, walnuts and sourdough. Oily and full-bodied, but with a dry, salty freshness." James Suckling
"An unprecedented and unforgettable Vernaccia, with a production process of great refinement, one of the highlights of island wine. Complex notes of apricot, toasted walnut, orange blossom and orange peel on the nose, with an appealing crispness on the palate." Luca Gardini
