Capichera - Santigaìni 2014

The Capichera Santigaìni 2014 is a white wine blend of Vermentino grapes harvested from the hillside vineyards of Sardinia, Italy. This wine has a nice buttery yellow color with greenish tints. It has intense aromas of peach, apricot and honeydew melon, along with floral undertones and a slightly salty minerality. On the palate it is full-bodied and round, with creamy notes of stone fruit, lanolin and apple strudel. The well-balanced acidity gives the wine a pleasant freshness and lift while well-integrated tannins provide an elegant finish. This complex and interesting wine also has a good amount of length and complexity on the palate. It pairs nicely with seafood dishes such as grilled squid or seared scallops, salads with ripe fruit and almonds, or hard cheeses like pecorino.
