Contini winery is one of the most important experiences of the Sardinian wine scene. For more than a century, through the work of several generations, works to enhance the most important vines on the island. The hundred hectares of the estate are around Oristano, within the areas of the Sinis peninsula, in the Tirso valley and on the hills of Monte Arci. In addition to a historic making of Vernaccia, Contini also produces excellent brands of Vermentino and Cannonau. Pariglia is a pure Vermentino produced with grapes from the vineyards of Terre d'Ossidiana and Monte Arci at an altitude of about 100 meters above sea level, on volcanic soils, generated by the dissolution of ancient rocks. The best bunches are softly pressed, and the flower must ferment in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats. Before bottling, the wine is aged for some months in steel tanks. The colour is bright yellow and light. The aroma has scents of citrus peel, orange blossom, hawthorn, yellow pulp fruit and iodine hints. The flavour is pleasantly fruity, aromatic, clear and fresh, with a harmonious finish.

Sardinia is an Italian island located in the Mediterranean Sea. The island has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the Nuragic civilization that inhabited the island over 3,000 years ago. The island's unique terroir, with its hot and dry climate, rocky soil, and sea breezes, has led to the production of distinctive wines.

The most famous wine produced in Sardinia is Cannonau, a red wine made from the Grenache grape. Cannonau is known for its rich, full-bodied flavor and high alcohol content. Other red wines produced on the island include Carignano, Monica, and Bovale.

Sardinia also produces white wines, including Vermentino, a crisp and refreshing wine with citrus and floral notes. Nuragus is another white wine produced on the island, known for its light and delicate flavor.

In addition to wine, Sardinia is also known for its production of Mirto, a traditional liqueur made from the berries of the myrtle plant. Mirto is typically served as a digestif after a meal and has a sweet and herbal flavor.

Overall, Sardinia's unique terroir and long history of winemaking have led to the production of distinctive wines and spirits that are worth exploring.
