Contini Vernaccia di Oristano Riserva 0.375L 1995

The most important ingredient in Vernaccia is time. It ages for over 20 years in oak and chestnut kegs which, together with the flor yeast, bring out the indomitable spirit and the inimitable flavour of this wine.

Colour

Golden yellow with amber hues.

Bouquet

Generous and lingering with aromas of roasted hazelnuts and almond blossom.

Flavour

Dry, warm and full-bodied; excellent structure, lingering finish tinged with the characteristic almond flavour.

Pairing

Excellent to round off a meal and for quiet meditation, the perfect accompaniment to desserts with marzipan and plain pastries and biscuits.
