The palate is crisp, slender and well defined, with lively acidity, a lightly spicy edge and a mineral impression. Floral notes linger alongside a pleasantly bitter finish. Its fresh style is best enjoyed while youthful; its longer-term aging potential is not specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes come from the Tuvaoes vineyards in the Logudoro hills, around 200 metres above sea level, where east-facing vines grow in calcareous clay soils. Sea breezes and the Mistral help shape the site’s pronounced day-to-night temperature shifts. The vines are Guyot-pruned and trained on vertical trellises, with care taken to avoid invasive chemical treatments. Carefully selected grapes are hand-harvested at low yields in the second half of September, destemmed and gently pressed, then fermented at controlled temperatures to preserve their fresh aromas. The wine is produced and matured in a cellar carved into the rock beside the vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe well chilled, around 8–10°C, with grilled or simply prepared seafood, shellfish, herb-seasoned white fish, or fresh cheeses.

Decanting is not necessary; allow it a few minutes in the glass to open.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Cherchi family has cultivated vines in the Usini area since the 1970s, focusing on the character of local grape varieties and the hills of Logudoro.
