Isola dei Nuraghi IGT Vermentino 2022 (750 ml.) Capichera

THE WINE

The Capichera Isola dei Nuraghi IGT Vermentino 2022 is the estate’s flagship wine, created in 1980 to showcase the full potential of Vermentino in a style comparable to the great international whites. The grapes come from historic vineyards in Gallura, rooted in weathered granite soils that are poor, draining, and naturally suited to expressing a distinctive minerality. Constant breezes and marked temperature shifts enhance aromatic precision. Stainless-steel fermentationand extended ageing on fine lees preserve purity, structure, and complexity, revealing notes of wildflowers, hawthorn, wisteria, Mediterranean herbs, pineapple, and flint. The palate is dry, full, vibrant, and harmonious, with a persistent finish and pronounced mineral sapidity. Excellent with raw seafood, shellfish, grilled fish, and refined Mediterranean cuisine.

THE COMPANY

The extreme north of Sardinia sees in Gallura a particularly suited area for viticulture. Here, in the 1970s, the story of the Capichera winery began, thanks to the Ragnedda family who planted new Vermentino vineyards and built a winery for the production of high-quality wines. With much enthusiasm but also with many investments and a lot of energy expended, the young brothers Fabrizio and Mario Ragnedda began to work in the winery in the early 1980s, precisely when the first bottles of Vermentino with the Capichera label were being marketed for the first time. Currently, Capichera distributes its wines internationally, and the original ten hectares of vineyard have become sixty. The quality level has seen a constant and continuous increase, and at the same time, while following the path of innovation and experimentation, the typicity of each label is maximally protected without compromise. Among the rows, the training system is partly guyot and partly spur cordon, with some plants also trained as bush vines, but above all, every agronomic practice is adopted thoughtfully and carefully, ensuring that from harvest to harvest the grapes meet the highest quality standards. In the winery, the oldest local traditions are wonderfully combined with the most modern enological technologies, so that, while fully respecting the intrinsic characteristics of the raw material, research and experimentation are ongoing and consistent. Each wine labeled Capichera is characterized by a great extractive concentration, high alcoholic strength, and a strong fruit maturity. The result is that, to date, all lovers of Italian wine products know the legendary brothers Mario and Fabrizio, who have fundamentally contributed to positively changing the face of Sardinian viticulture.
