The Vermentino di Sardegna Praidis from Cantina Castiadas is a shining example of how the unique Sardinian terroir is beautifully expressed in this wine. Grown in the sunny and breezy areas of southeastern Sardinia, the Vermentino is hand-picked at the peak of its ripeness, ensuring the utmost expression of freshness and aromatic intensity.
