Full description
Happiness is just 4 glasses of wine away!
Experience it for yourself with this 1. 5-hour experience in the province of Oristano: you’ll visit the historic Cantina Contini and take part in a tasting of delicious wines on a tour dedicated to Vernaccia.
Adventure and flavour come together in an unmissable combination, just waiting for you!
What we will do
The meeting point is at the Contini Winery in Cabras, in the province of Oristano, set against the backdrop of the Sinis, a region where history, tradition and nature come together. We will be welcomed by our guide, who will introduce us to this winery.
We’ll begin with a tour of the winery, a 40-minute tour that will take us to the places where the estate’s wines are born and mature. We’ll discover that, after more than a hundred years, the love for the vineyard and the local area remains as strong as ever. Among the many interesting facts, the guide will also explain a highly distinctive oxidative method, unique in the world, which involves ageing the wines with the grapes still on the vine, allowing them to mature for up to 70 years.
Afterwards, we’ll settle in for a guided tasting dedicated to Vernaccia. For about an hour, the undisputed stars of the show will be Sardinia’s native grape varieties.
We will taste four glasses of wine, specifically:
- Karmis Bianco Isola dei Nuraghi IGT
- Vernaccia di Oristano DOC
- Vernaccia di Oristano DOC Riserva
- Antico Gregori Vernaccia di Oristano 1979
The tasting will be accompanied by canapés specially selected to complement the wines.
The experience will last approximately 1. 5 hours in total.
