Principal grape varieties

Terroir

• Vineyards on calcareous hills between sea level and 300 m, well-exposed to sunlight, sometimes flat or on gentle slopes.
• Warm, arid climate with mild winters; July and August regularly exceed 30 °C; light summer rainfall and significant diurnal temperature variation towards the end of summer.
• Microclimate influenced by sea breezes and prevailing winds: maestrale, levante, and, less frequently, tramontana.

• Traditional viticultural and winemaking practices apply to the Bianco, Rosso, and Rosato wine types; Malvasia is the emblematic grape variety of the hills around Modolo, Tresnuraghes, and Magomadas. (via Wikipedia · CC BY-SA 4.0)

• Aromatic ripeness is promoted by sea breezes, light-reflecting calcareous hills, and light summer rainfall across vineyards situated between 0 and 300 m.

• Miocene calcareous soils, with pumice tuffs and organogenic/arenaceous limestones that are sometimes marly, promote steady ripening and aromatic expression.
