Bright golden straw in colour with green highlights, this Superiore Vermentino opens with expressive aromas of white peach, citrus blossom, and fragrant Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, it delivers zesty lemon curd, ripe nectarine, and a distinctive saline minerality characteristic of Sardinian terroir. The texture is generous and full-bodied for a white, with lively acidity providing excellent structure and a long, pleasantly bitter almond finish.

About this wine
Jankara's Vermentino di Gallura Superiore represents the pinnacle of Sardinian white wine craftsmanship. Sourced from the windswept granite hills of Gallura in northeastern Sardinia, this Vermentino expresses the mineral precision and coastal elegance that define the region's DOCG classification. The terroir, characterized by poor, rocky soils and the cooling maritime influence of the Tyrrhenian Sea, imparts a distinctive salinity and freshness that sets Vermentino di Gallura apart from other Italian whites.
At 14% ABV, this Superiore designation reflects elevated ripeness and concentration, delivering a refined expression suited to fine dining and discerning cellars. The wine's natural acidity and clean profile make it an exceptional aperitif or pairing for the finest seafood preparations, from raw shellfish and delicate white fish to Mediterranean tapas and dressed green vegetables. Whether enjoyed aboard a private vessel off the Costa Smeralda or at an intimate dinner party, Jankara's Vermentino di Gallura Superiore offers the sophistication and authenticity that connoisseurs expect from Sardinia's most celebrated white wine appellation.
