Pala Soprasole Vermentino di Sardegna DOC 2023 750ml

Although Vermentino is not native to Sardinia this variety has been grown here for many years and has become a signature white wine of this Island. The Pala family have cultivated Vermentino since the 1950s using the same clone reproduced and adapted in their limestone hillside vineyards overlooking the sea of the Gulf of Cagliari. In spring of 2022, Pala relaunched their “I Fiori” line and introduced SOPRASOLE Vermentino di Sardegna DOC.

The inspiration for the new label and name comes from the Sardinia of brilliant light, of white cliffs, hills, emerald-colored vineyards as well as the waters of its sea in the light of the sun that caresses them. Soprasole is the blue night full of sparks and lights of memorable evenings; it is memories of walks on the beach scented with a thousand Mediterranean essences. It is a kite flying on the beach lost in the immense blue of the sky… it is the elegance and glamor of the most beautiful evenings. Soprasole is closing your eyes and finding yourself in Sardinia.
